Walgreens sucks at scheduling vaccines, so we scraped it to make slot-filling easier.
- toomuchtodo 6y agoHey, this is awesome. Is there anyway to know which vaccine you’re getting scheduled for? For example, I’d rather get a Moderna vaccine than Pfizer due to the superior efficacy against strain variants.
- ekatzenstein 6y agoIn Delaware, Walgreens does Moderna. Not sure if Walgreens uses only Moderna nationwide. There would likely be more info on their site.

- davidf560 6y agoThey appear to be using Pfizer in at least some locations in Illinois, FWIW.

- maxerickson 6y agoThat doesn't compare them.
- toomuchtodo 6y agoIt’s what I’m using to make my own personal decision, as I need to get a vaccine regardless.
- maxerickson 6y agoOkay, but you should probably be more careful how you describe the information. For instance, you could state that you want the Moderna vaccine because of what they've said about effectiveness against emerging strains. It's likely that the antibodies produced in response to the Pfizer vaccine have similar cross reactivity as the Moderna vaccine (because they cause production of the same spike protein, which is what the immune system reacts to). And of course, Pfizer is also studying the situation: https://www.wsj.com/articles/pfizer-covid-19-vaccine-works-against-mutations-found-in-u-k-south-africa-variants-lab-study-finds-11611802559 https://www.wsj.com/articles/pfizer-covid-19-vaccine-works-a...
