One issue that has not been addressed and is so important for so many people. My partner is on a couple of meds. He can only get refills for one month at a time for one.
I have been trying to get his meds refilled and this is horrible. I keep having to go to the pharmacy to try and pick it up but the Drs office has not called them back to approve the refill. Obviously they are swamped. The pharmacy is swamped and cannot answer the incoming phone calls so there I am constantly being exposed.
Meanwhile the Dr office doesn't want anyone to come.
This is absolute B.S.
We have been held in this hostage situation and it just adds to the anxiety. It is time that this over controlling of the pharmacy and the patients by the medical cartel is broken.
I am upset.
Where do you live? In NYS here. My son has a sinus infection, and was diagnosed over the phone. Called in a script and I was able to get it.
My mother got 3 months of pills, but my insurance will only cover 1 month at a time. I need 2 BP meds, and an anxiety med each day. So I am kind of worried that in a month I will not be able to get it either.

I posted yesterday, but it is so many pages back now that I wanted to post it one more time.
When I called our pharmacy they said that there is now a COVID-19 override so that people don't have to wait to refill their next 30- or 90-day supply. I refilled mine, and my husband's, important medications and they clicked the override and it worked.
This image is floating about, with people claiming it's either a motorway outside Glasgow, or a motorway outside London.
Both are FALSE. This is an image of the Royal Thai Army (and they are driving on the wrong side of the road to be in the UK)👇

Good to hear! I will have to see if mine go through. If I can get an extra month, that would be great.
"The Defense Production Act permits the president to push national security items to the front of the line, rather than following items that were previously ordered," said Loren Thompson, a defense industry consultant and military expert at the Lexington Institute. "It exists to speed up urgently needed items."

I introduced myself on thread 2 page 125.
U.K. Military rural North somewhere.
Before my wee update. Firstly that picture claiming to be from the UK with military convoy. It's bollocks. Apart from the fact the packet of vehicles are on the wrong side of the road. Those wagons are not British. Our LRs don't have those type of canvas soft tops, markings. The LR trailers are not the right type. The Ambulance is all wrong, the nearest thing we use to that was the old one tonne ambulance, it's is much more square in appearance (not many 1 tonne ambles left in service I think). Ignore and disregard, it's bollocks. Someone is scare mongering.
UPDATE:
Work: Still a lot happening. My location is now preparing to continue tocarry out its critical defence role during the pandemic. Those not needed will be stood down until needed, many others have been detailed for other ops (military aid to the civil authority) elsewhere. I am remaining here as my role is connected with the defence function. My previous updates makes things clearer. We don't have masses of manpower, that's not our role.
I know of other camps, bases and locations which have all started to take preventative measures to lessen the impact of the virus on personnel so as they can continue to provide support to the civil authority when needed. I know that various Ops are now on standby in order to do this (various Ops by different names which provide support from distribution, petroleum, protection of power sites, water, aid to police and medical support). A lot is happening.
Domestic: So glad I had the foresight to prepare over 6 weeks ago. Family briefed and we are ready.
Opinion: I will get on here when I can. I am deliberately vague on who, where, I am and what I do and allude to. But I come on here because I believe people have a right to know. I am a country person anyway but so glad I don't live in a town or city. The talk amongst my friends is what happens if it gets really bad and the system has to rely on the forces for support, what happens when we start to go down by numbers with the virus, what then? People are worried even in the forces. More worried about being able to perform our tasks and being away from families. But still confident that we can and will prevail if it comes to it. Think positive. Be kind and look after each other.
Sources tell me that troops are being embolised from Catterick Barracks ready for a 15 day lockdown which will be announced tomorrow....
Yes. Soldiers being deployed as we speak. Must say I'm not a fan
I’ve got mates in the Army and they are preparing to deployed into cities this weekend #coronavirus #Army
