Demand for vaccine picks up at local pharmacies
MEDICINE HAT, AB – A surge in vaccine interest is being seen at some local pharmacies, following this week’s vaccine program announcement in Alberta.
“It has gone crazy. The phones haven’t stopped because there are a lot of people now panicking. People still aren’t really sure what to do so a lot are saying ‘I wanna go to the gym, I still wanna go to a restaurant,'” Greg’s Remedy’s pharmacy technician Nicona Brost said.
The pharmacy has doubled the amount of vaccine ordered over the past two weeks to 180 doses.
