Pediatric only. She and the state legislature have not taken any real action to fix the state law that only allows practitioners to administer vax if authorized by federal health bodies (FDA & CDC). It’s why we’re now only one of like two states where cvs won’t let us schedule shots.

Yeah, after sharing it, I thought, "is she only doing it for pediatric?" That's not very brave, is it?

Nbd, there are several lines of encouraging discussion happening. And I appreciate you sharing. I just need her and the do-nothing state leg to get in gear
