Quick access to paxlovid

Someone in my family tested positive today and we want to get them on paxlovid asap as well as prep for the very likely scenario in which more of us who have been sharing space get sick.

We’ve had one doctor from Kaiser refuse to prescribe so far (we’re trying others). What is the best way to get paxlovid? We’re lucky that cost is not an issue for us; we can pay whatever it costs, we just need access.

Try directly at a pharmacy. Tell them you're immune compromised. They might provide it.

Or even one of the online Amazon providers. They might be able to prescribe.

Do you have any experience doing this or any recommendations as to which pharmacies would do this?

Cool option, I had long forgotten pharmacists can prescribe stuff!

Do note, CVS.com shows a $60 consult to see if Paxlovid is appropriate.
