"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"According to Community Pharmacy England (CPE), which represents more than 10,000 chemists, between a third and half of patients who booked via the national booking system are not actually eligible for the vaccination. CPE director of NHS services Alastair Buxton told the BBC that many patients had arrived at their pharmacy having booked the Covid-19 jab, only to be told they could only get the flu jab."
The Independent solicits donations to fund on-the-ground journalists covering issues such as reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech while keeping reporting free of paywalls. The outlet emphasizes the importance of verifying facts and sending reporters to gather perspectives from both sides. UK pharmacies report that the NHS booking system allowed many non-eligible patients to book Covid vaccinations, with Community Pharmacy England estimating between a third and half of bookings involve ineligible people. CPE director Alastair Buxton said patients arrived expecting Covid jabs but were told only flu jabs were available, causing upset and, in some cases, abuse toward pharmacy staff.
