US COVID SHOTS ARE FREE.
Please do not let Walgreens and CVS mislead you or your family members or neighbors about this! They are the biggest part of the federal bridge (free shots for uninsured people) program, but the rollout’s logistics have been a little scattered and you may get pushback.

PSA: the CDC has a program that pays for your COVID vaccine if your insurer won't. The guy at CVS told me that my insurer had not added the new vaccine to its formulary yet, so I'd need to pay $190. I told him about this program, showed him the website, and paid nothing. 🤗

The US has messed up its COVID booster rollout. People are cancelling vaccine appointments or are wrongfully being charged because of insurance issues. This is unacceptable. Vaccines should be free regardless of your insurance status.
