AREA COVID-19 VACCINATION SITES
All Missourians ages 6 months and older are eligible to receive COVID vaccines without charge. If you have already had at least one vaccine, remember to bring your vaccine card. Vaccinations are being offered as follows:
A Missourian on the ticket
From The Examiner during the week of July 10-15, 1972: “STATE DELEGATION HOPES EAGLETON VEEP NOMINEE” – Miami Beach, Fla. – The matter of a Democratic vice presidential nominee is the main concern now of the Missouri delegation since George McGovern’s nomination for the presidency.
Biden administration needs updated vaccines, big new booster push
As COVID-19 killed thousands of Americans every day in late 2020 and early 2021, the U.S. government’s rapid success in shepherding the creation, emergency approval and initial rollout of safe, effective, free vaccines was a major public health victory — one made all the more amazing because it came under a president who spent part of his last year in office saying the pandemic was less of a problem than it was.
A bold venture to cut prescription drug costs
Mark Cuban’s latest business venture may be even more watchable than his appearances on the “Shark Tank” reality show. Even if you’re not a fan of that program, there’s good reason to keep an eye on what he’s doing.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Pro Bowl left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. failed to reach a long-term deal before Friday’s deadline, leaving the blindside protector for quarterback Patrick Mahomes playing on the franchise tag this season.
