DENVER — It's been a week of changes and confusion for Coloradans wanting to get a COVID-19 vaccine after the FDA limited access to the shot to older Americans and at-risk populations.
"When they said that we were going to have to get a prescription, I started making phone calls and figuring out what we were going to do," said Lucas Sauer, a concerned resident.
Despite being at high-risk for COVID-19, the last week has been confusing and nerve-wracking for him and his family.
"Asking somebody that has a high-deductible health care plan to go to their doctor for just a prescription for a vaccine, that incurs so much cost for that family. Also, when's the last time you called your doctor and got in the same day?" asked Michael Scruggs, the owner and pharmacist at Front Range Pharmacy.
