As someone who wants to get their child vaccinated but their pediatrician is having trouble getting in the vaccines, is there another option in the US? Every local pharmacy only has certain COVID/flu shots and nothing that would work for an infant

That seems very strange if it goes on too long. I'd suggest calling another pediatricians office.

Sounds like doctors, clinics, hospitals, and many pharmacies + some schools.
If you're having difficulties, your state's department of health is responsible for the VFC program CDC.gov/.../vfc

WTF! What is going on?

What’s the pediatrician attribute the shortage to? Tell me it was just somebody in their office forgetting to re-order somehow…
