The wife was feeling under the weather with an upset stomach and while I don't normally shop at Walgreens, it's the closest drug store where I could pick up some Alka Seltzer.

While I was there picking up the stomach meds, a pre-recorded message plays over the store PA system:

"Ask our pharmacist about getting the Comirnaty COVID-19 shot from Pfizer to protect you and your family this winter."

This was followed by some blah blah blah tripe about staying healthy then the announcement finishes with:

"This message brought to you by Pfizer".

I was appalled as I have no doubt all of you would be. The store is actively advancing the Comirnaty bait-and-switch. This is to say nothing of running advertising for a drug company that grossed 32 billion in revenue last quarter by selling lies and death.

I took a breath to calm myself and walked over to the pharmacist window. She was a severe looking woman in her early 30's and was busy filling out paperwork. I politely asked "Excuse me, I heard over the loudspeaker something about Comirnaty. I know that vaccine has been approved by the FDA but my understanding was that it's not yet available here in the states."

She looked annoyed that I interrupted her and then responded "It doesn't say Comirnaty on the bottle but the formulation is identical."

I replied that while that's my understanding as well, but there's an enormous difference in that what you have on hand is covered only under the EUA from the FDA and consequently, people have no legal recourse if the vaccine injures them. People might get the impression that you have actual Comirnaty and wrongly believe that they're getting something fully approved and that they have the ability to take legal action of they're harmed.

Her eyes narrowed and she replied "Trust me, nobody is asking about that. They just want their shot so they don't get sick".

I responded "That may be true, but isn't that an element of informed consent? You have an ethical obligation to let people know that this is not Comirnaty and if they're injured or God forbid, killed by this vaccine, they have absolutely no legal recourse whatsoever."

She replied, "Look, I don't have any role in the advertisements we play in the store", at which point she started walking away to file the paperwork, then turned her head back to me and said "is there anything else I can help you with?".

I said no, I've learned everything I need to know about this place.

The positive in this wretched story is that two middle-aged women were listening to the conversation and asked me about it afterwards. They were shocked to learn that they have no legal recourse and doubly shocked to learn about VAERS and the number of confirmed deaths/injuries. I advised them that this is a small fraction of the true count.

Dan Bongino has a saying about arguing for the sake of the people listening in and it was very true in this circumstance. I'm disgusted by Walgreens, but perhaps two more people woke up yesterday.

(For geographic reference, I'm in Minneapolis Minnesota).
