[NPInfo] pharmacist and injections

[Johnny Hudson]

One more thing.... What about liability? Does their malpractice
insurance cover this service, or would they need additional coverage. 

And in our society where we can sue for millions because our coffee is
too hot, why would they want the liability? It doesn't seem that
profitable to me, and many local health departments, community
organizations, and some larger employers offer them free or at a reduced
costs.
