"Very efficient -- but no alcohol swab for vaccine…"

The process of vaccinating for covid is remarkably efficient. The flow of patients is effortlessly maintained and all the staff are cheerful and polite.

I was very surprised however that for my second Pfizer jab today, the injection site was not swabbed with alcohol first -- the needle was just stuck in, taking with it into my arm whatever microbes were present on the skin. I believe this is not correct practice.

Other than that, I have the highest opinion of this center.
