Veterans: Living in a foreign country? Get your COVID-19 vaccine reimbursed
Eligible Veterans can be reimbursed by VA for a COVID-19 vaccine
Are you a Veteran living or traveling outside the United States? With enactment of the SAVE LIVES Act on March 24, 2021, Veterans eligible for VA’s Foreign Medical Program (FMP) can receive reimbursement from VA for a COVID-19 vaccine provided by a local community provider.
We can pay for a COVID-19 vaccine that is formally approved for use by the national health authorities of the country in which the Veteran receives the vaccine. It does not need to be a COVID-19 vaccine authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Dallas has been trying to get its panhandling problem under control for years, but it s not as easy as just kicking people off the streets. The city has to balance the quality of life residents want against the constitutional rights of panhandlers. So, the city is looking into strategies that won t put it in legal hot water.
Districts 11, 12 and 14 had the most panhandling service requests last year, according to a presentation scheduled to be given to City Council on Wednesday about how to handle panhandlers.
“It’s really just been problematic for a lot of my neighbors and folks that live in this neighborhood, said Lee Kleinman, District 11 s councilman. It’s not without compassion. The folks that live here want to help homeless [populations] and want to get them into shelters and into permanent housing, but they’re also kind of losing tolerance of the aggressive behavior.”
