Just disregard what this idiot says. As usual, he's so far off he's almost completely wrong. There will be plenty of manual prescriptions for many years to come. He was also wrong about having to go to the pharmacy for the shingles vaccine.

I have no doubt HIS doctor will be electronically distributing prescriptions *that qualify* next year. I also have no doubt HIS doctor made HIM go to the pharmacy for the shingles vaccine because HIS doctor didn't have it on hand.
