"To support the training and legitimacy of their own on-campus police force during the 1960s and 1970s, university leaders increased police budgets and lobbied for expanded statutory authority. University leaders steadily increased budgets to outfit and support police officers."

I follow COVID scientists here on Mastodon. I've seen them post links to studies showing waning effectiveness of COVID vaccines after 6 months.

I received the updated booster last October and want to get boosted again prior to some planned travel in July. (Air travel to the MAGA anti-vax cesspool known as Florida)

I have contacted three pharmacies in my area.

One has no COVID vaccines at all and said they won't receive any until fall.

The other two say they will not vaccinate me because they must follow US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines stating that only people 65 years and older should receive boosters at this time.

They won't vaccinate me even if I am willing to pay out of pocket.

Both say I must get a recommendation from my health care provider before they will even consider it.

Less than 20% of people in my state are up to date on their COVID vaccines. For those of us who want to follow the science and not some arbitrary age limitation, why not let us get vaccinated?

@shansterable Ugh, sorry to hear. We had a similar odyssey but then found one (a Rite Aid, SoCal) that was much more relaxed. I also heard on here that some people had success bringing in the CDC guidelines about how immune-compromised people can self-attest and self-attesting, but individual pharmacists might still not be moved. It should NOT be so difficult, and arbitrary!

My #CovidIsNotOver table at the Association for the Rhetoric of Science, Technology, and Medicine (ARSTM) at the Rhetoric Society (RSA)! Art by @JoBlakely and @violetblue ; zines by @hnewlevant ; flyers by @phpledge and bit.ly/lesscovid. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions on how to make it engaging--it's been lovely to meet other #CovidCautious people and create some visibility around #disability and #COVID .
