Target's website is advertising flu shots, saying "easy peasy, no appointment necessary". The problem is that there was no one available to give a flu shot on Tuesday. A man is line said that a shot had not been available to him when he tried several days before.
It is illegal in most states to advertise something that you do not actually have available for sale.
Worse, it is a danger to public health to require people to return multiple times just to get their flu shot. I talked to Target management, the Santa Clara County DA's office, and Santa Clara County Health, all of whom blew off my concerns.
Please do not attack the Target website. Target is always very nice to wheelchair users. Feel free to tweet about this problem.
However, if I get the flu before I get a flu shot, I am going to sue Target in small claims court. I have already printed out the website page to use as evidence.
