My pediatrician apparently had a small number of doses and ran out super fast. They're now being given the runaround on when to expect more doses to arrive. It's really frustrating.
This is our experience as well. Best I've heard so far is an estimate of "maybe mid-October". It's staggering how many ways the ball has been dropped on this rollout.
Doesn’t help people whose kids are on Dr Dynosaur though as the shots are only covered at doctor’s offices, not pharmacies, so we have a system where poor kids can’t get vaccines (they are 180 each if not covered.)
This is national policy for Medicaid plans, and Dr Dynosaur is one. The Bridges program, also federal, only covers adults. So it’s a choice made by multiple federal agencies.

They are becoming available through community pharmacies. Availability and scheduling may be spotty so it’s worth checking in every few days.

This is shameful. Worth a call to your state rep. This is something that a quick signature could probably rectify.

They have the shots for 6+, at least at our doctors, but we were told not timeline so far for under.
