Episode Details

Arizona’s health officials are moving fast to protect residents as flu and COVID-19 season looms—pharmacists can now administer vaccines without waiting for federal approval, thanks to new standing orders. With respiratory illnesses expected to surge in early October and federal guidance delayed until late October, this proactive step ensures easier access for those who want to get vaccinated. The goal? Reduce hospital strain this winter—not by forcing shots, but by making them readily available. Keep in mind: not all pharmacies carry the vaccines, and coverage varies by insurer.
