Walmart to offer vaccines across the state

Aaron Mesmer reports

Walmart and Sam’s Club pharmacies announced they will begin administering COVID-19 vaccines in Florida, including 17 locations in the Bay Area.

Appointments for the vaccines, once available, will be made online.

Walmart says vaccines will be available to those who meet the current phase of vaccine eligibility in Florida which can be found on the Florida Department of Health website.

The company says it chose locations based on population density, demographics, infection rates and availability of local healthcare resources.

Walmart says it will administer vaccines in 22 states as part of the Federal Retail Pharmacy Program, plus under the jurisdiction of 11 other states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.

Vaccine supply and eligibility will vary based on state and local guidelines, Walmart said.

Digital reminders will be sent for those who make appointments, including reminders for second-dose appointments. You do not have to be a member of Sam’s Club to sign-up for an appointment. Appointments are available seven days a week, but the timing will vary based on the availability of the vaccine.
