Karen Fleetwood lives at Edgewood Spring Creek Manor American Falls, an assisted living center. This week, a team of Walgreens pharmacists visited the facility to vaccinate Fleetwood, and other residents and staff, against the coronavirus.
Thirty minutes after getting the shot, Fleetwood was feeling okay.
“I feel fine except for my arm is a little bit sore," she said. "Kind of like maybe somebody punched it or something.” Fleetwood is 66. She’s been careful to avoid potential exposure to the virus and she said getting the vaccine means she can get back to her normal life.
