Insulting a key demographic of your constituency in a ranked choice system is an interesting strategy.

I doubt not taking the call is what the paperwork would reflect.

I think "not thoroughly tested" is code for anti-vax. Big overstep for a pharmacist. That's between you and your physician, but here we are.

Yeah, it's a point of contention and much discussion. I agree. I think overall it's worth pursuing.

Not ignorant. Ethical consumerism is difficult.

Sadly, not for groceries per se, but take a look at "B Corps" and B Corp certification.

The big pharmacy chains are all bad, each in their own special way. I'm fortunate to have a few small independent pharmacies to choose from. The one I go to is no nonsense, and I've never waited more than five minutes, and they know my name. Support them while you can.

Not that it's anyone's business, but what in the world was the pharmacist's argument?

COVID is still a big deal. People are still getting sick and dying. In the US, it's still claiming about 1,500 lives weekly.

Long COVID significantly affects the quality of life for many.

The best doctor can only advocate for the best treatment. Your continued good health is dependent on your vigilance.

As a consumer, I will now forever remember that WebMD's C Suite is most interested in "crushing their competition" and being heavy handed with their employees. I once thought that they were concerned about the betterment of societal health. This is how you lose your most performant employees.

I can't believe they published this to a publically available platform like Vimeo. Did they already lose their Marketing executive?

It amazes me that we've gotten to the point where our elected representatives act like petulant children. Was this a misstep, yes. That is all it was though. A mistake was made, a process was reviewed, changes were made. This is how adults handle mistakes.
