Pharmacies 'overwhelmed' by early response to AstraZeneca rollout in B.C.'s Lower Mainland

CBC: A line of people stretched outside the Shoppers Drug Mart at Vancouver's Kingsgate Mall on Wednesday afternoon, made up of hopefuls eager to get their first shot of the AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine. But just before 1:30 p.m. PT, their hopes were dashed. A security guard told the crowd the store's pharmacy had run out of its supply.  "We just have to be patient," said Catherine Bussey, who left without an appointment. "I can't really get angry. It's not going to serve any point. I'll keep coming back and trying."
