Saturday

at CVS. Scheduled it online. The app did ask "Please confirm you would like to receive the COVID-19 vaccine and are eligible". I do meet one of the high risk factors so that wasn't a problem but they don't ask you which factor you meet. When I got to the store to get the shot they didn't ask me to verify anything but my birthdate.
