(KFVS) - This week, President Biden laid out his goal is to get more Americans vaccinated.
âVaccine hesitancy is real,â Pharmacist Cortni Hicks said.
Cortni Hicks is a pharmacist at Medicap Pharmacy in Anna, Illinois. She said itâs not hard to get vaccine doses, but it is hard to get patients to take the shots.
âItâs very important to meet the patient where theyâre at because maybe theyâre not comfortable scheduling a doctorâs appointment or coming into the pharmacy,â Hicks said.
