In the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccination campaign in the US, many independent doctors offices say they've been left in the dark.

Dr. Emily Maxson Chief Medical Officer, Aledade Sources say hospitals, large retail pharmacies, and federally-qualified health centers are the main distributors of the vaccine.
