KITCHENER A Kitchener pharmacist is being praised by his patients for administering big doses of kindness when giving out COVID-19 vaccine jabs. Virginia Tkach says she was nervous about getting her second COVID-19 vaccine dose. She initially received Pfizer and said she had a tough time getting an earlier second appointment. She went to Queen s Pharmacy in Kitchener and says her experience was worth sharing, praising pharmacist and owner Mina Abdel-Shahid. Just his manner, like there s no negative feeling at all, there s been a lot of it in the atmosphere lately, Tkach said. He s very important to the community and I just want him to know that we need more people like him.
