Got my annual flu shot and my COVID vaccination today. Since this is the United States, hubby still doesn't have a job and we have no health insurance, I had to pay for both shots out of pocket. It cost over $450. I could fly roundtrip to visit my niece on the Eastern seaboard and pay less than I did today just to avoid getting sick. It seems... well... odd that people with jobs and healthcare coverage get such vaccinations free of charge, while those who have neither of those things are forced to pay to underwrite the costs, but hello #DeathRattleCapitalism I guess
