"Independent pharmacies have been outperforming their larger rivals all along. ... Independent pharmacies achieve superior results not despite being small, but because they are small. It’s their local ownership that makes the difference." https://t.co/Wqak4XtQ7d @stacyfmitchell
Yesterday the @GovernorVA announced that the ongoing Phase 1B of vaccinations will now include those 65 and older, as well as those 16 to 64 who have vulnerable conditions.

I am pleased to see that @VDHgov has announced that Alexandria is able to proceed into Phase 1B of COVID vaccinations next week.
Our Health Department and partners are prepared to support this expansion in the scope of vaccinations.

Yesterday the @GovernorVA provided detail on the vaccination distribution for Phases 1B and 1C.
Our Health Department has petitioned the Commonwealth to allow us to proceed to 1B.

Independent pharmacies across the country "are the backbone of their community. Now, they are helping fight COVID misinformation, and administering the vaccine in areas where medical resources and access are often limited." @magnoliarx@CBSThisMorning https://t.co/gZBmpE1sf2
The Alexandria Health Department has begun vaccinating health care workers against COVID-19! If you're a health care worker employed in Alexandria and haven't been contacted, call 703.746.4988 on Monday. For information about vaccines, visit https://t.co/sFewaKeftH.
NoVa elected leaders tell @GovernorVa they are not ready to start Phase 1 reopening on May 15. With cases numbers & hospitalizations still on the rise in NoVa, leaders believe it’s too to reopen here. They urge the Governor to allow regional reopening @nbcwashington
The foundation of our reopening is the protection of public health.
The @GovernorVA set reasonable milestones to ensure protections are in place.
With @JeffreyCMcKay @AnninPWC @PRandallcares & @libbygarvey we have suggested an approach for the region.
