The son of a merchant, he ran his business with a simple motto: “Be particular. Never sell anything you would not want yourself.” This credo served Kroger well over the next 136 years as the supermarket business evolved into a variety of formats aimed at satisfying the ever-changing needs of shoppers. The Kroger Co. is a publicly held corpora- tion (NYSE: KR). Still based in Cincinnati, Kroger operates nearly 2,800 stores under two dozen banners, ranking as one of the world’s largest retailers.

  • January 2018 MANIFESTATIONS of ISLAMOPHO
    DIALOGUE & OUTREACH Department OIC Islamophobia Observatory Monthly Bulletin – January 2018 MANIFESTATIONS OF ISLAMOPHOBIA: A. In the United States and Canada: US: Minnesota Republicans under fire for saying Muslims are infiltrating the party— Two Minnesota Republican state lawmakers and a local GOP official were facing scrutiny after they reportedly shared a Facebook post accusing Muslims of preparing to “infiltrate” the party’s caucuses this month. State Reps. Kathy Lohmer and Cindy Pugh, shared the post created by Dave Sina, chairman of the Fourth Congressional District GOP. In the post, Sina said a friend of his had attended a caucus training session held at a mosque by the Muslim American Society. MAS was a nonpartisan organization that promoted civic engagement among American Muslims with local chapters across the US. Sina claimed that Muslims were trying to “infiltrate our republican caucuses on Feb. 6” and that “they didn’t talk about the general election but I am sure they are ahead of us in that as well.” The local party chair played to a sense of hysteria that American Muslims were, and would always be, foreigners who want political influence only to harm the country. See: The Huffington Post News’ entry, in: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/minnesota-republicans-muslims- caucuses_us_5a7217b9e4b05253b2752e90, retrieved on 3.1.2018 US: Steve Bannon steps down from Breitbart News— Stephen Bannon had stepped down as executive chairman of Breitbart News, the company announced in an online post and a source close to Bannon confirmed. The former White House chief strategist faced mounting pressure to resign from Breitbart after he was quoted disparaging President Donald Trump and his family in a new book “Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House” by Michael Wolff.

  • Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination for General Public Program Summary of Program for Jurisdictions
    December 2, 2020 Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination for General Public Program Summary of Program for Jurisdictions The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are partnering with pharmacies to increase access to COVID-19 vaccine once one or more vaccines are authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in the United States. There are two federal pharmacy programs: The Pharmacy Partnership for Long-Term Care Program and the Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination. Through the Federal Retail Pharmacy Partnership Strategy for COVID-19 Vaccination, retail pharmacy partners can help jurisdictions augment access to vaccine when supply increases and vaccine is recommended beyond the initial populations. With more than 90% of people in the United States living within five miles of a pharmacy, pharmacies have unique reach and ability to provide access to COVID-19 vaccine and support broad vaccination efforts. This program will provide critical vaccination services for the U.S. population, with vaccine administered at store locations at no cost to recipients. The program will be implemented in close coordination with jurisdictions to ensure optimal COVID-19 vaccination coverage and vaccine access nationwide. Program activation will be on a national scale, with select pharmacy partners receiving a direct allocation of COVID- 19 vaccine. Timing and scale of activation (how many partners, how many stores) will depend on various factors, including supply. The federal retail pharmacy program does not include every pharmacy in the United States. Pharmacies not included in the federal program will need to coordinate with their jurisdictions to become COVID- 19 vaccination providers.
