CVS Health Expands Community Access to COVID-19 Vaccines
As part of the Federal Retail Pharmacy Program rollout, beginning February 11, 2021, CVS Health® will offer COVID-19 vaccinations to eligible populations at a limited number of CVS Pharmacy® locations in 11 states. CVS Health will receive approximately 250,000 doses from the federal government. As more supply becomes available, CVS Health will expand to additional states while increasing the number of stores offering vaccinations.
Appointments can be made as early as February 9 for CVS Pharmacy locations offering COVID-19 vaccinations on February 11. Vaccines will be offered on an appointment-only basis via CVS.com or through the CVS Pharmacy app. People without online access can contact Customer Service at 1-800-746-7287. Please note that this is at select CVS locations; an appointment is required; and you must be in an eligible phase to receive the vaccine. Eligibility will be based on state guidelines.
