FORT MACLEOD Some residents in the Fort Macleod area are raising concerns after a vaccine shipment failed to arrive as scheduled at one of the local pharmacies. A Claresholm couple told CTV News they were booked for an appointment Tuesday but received an email the day before telling them it had been rescheduled for March 19. The couple said they called the pharmacy at the Independent Grocer in Fort Macleod and were told their vaccine shipment didn’t arrive. “These are very stressful times,” said the couple in their 70s, who wanted to remain anonymous. “When you’re told your shot is tomorrow, only to find out its delayed because they have no vaccine, increases the stress level tenfold.”
