What if ER Is Primary Care Doc?

Feb 21, 2021 | Opinion

Dear Editor:

Toward the end of the Feb. 12 article on Page 7 (“CVS Begins Vaccination Rollout, Shore Locations Not Yet Included”), it says to contact your physician’s office for the vaccination.

What if the emergency room is your primary care physician? Is it “Too bad, you’re not in the loop?”

Does the emergency room set a follow-up appointment with Eastern Shore Rural Health?

I have thought there would be a few that will not fit in any group.
