PAWTUCKET – The family-owned Simpson’s Pharmacy may be small in stature, but it’s playing an outsized role in the fight against COVID-19 thanks to a staff that’s working hard to vaccinate hard-to-reach populations.
Cheryl (Simpson) Stoukides, who runs Pawtucket’s last remaining family pharmacy at 10 Newport Ave., told The Valley Breeze last Friday that the pharmacy had administered Moderna and Pfizer vaccines to some 500 people over three weeks of operation.
