STATEWIDE — CVS Health expanded the number of sites where it is offering COVID-19 vaccinations to 157 locations in the state of Florida on Tuesday, March 9, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced.

Back on February 23, he originally announced the start of the program at 81 select CVS Pharmacy, CVS Pharmacy y más, and Navarro Discount Pharmacy locations in 13 counties across Florida, including select locations in Volusia, Flagler, Polk, and Hillsborough counties. Two stores in Polk County were among the original group participating and only one in the other three counties. Most of the locations — 67 — were in the Miami-Dade County area.

The additional 76 stores announced on March 9 are in the following counties: Alachua, Broward, Charlotte, Collier, Columbia, Duval, Escambia, Gulf, Hamilton, Hernando, Hillsborough, Lee, Leon, Marion, Miami-Dade, Orange, Osceola, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk, Putnam, Seminole, St. Johns, and Volusia.

“These sites at select CVS Health locations will build on the progress we’ve made at existing retail sites and significantly increase access to the vaccine for our seniors,” DeSantis said on February 23.

Individuals wishing to receive a vaccine at a CVS Health location must register in advance at CVS.com or through the CVS Pharmacy app, and people without online access can contact CVS customer service: 800-746-7287. Walk-in vaccinations without an appointment will not be provided.

As more supply becomes available, CVS Health will expand vaccine access through an increasing number of store locations in additional Florida counties.
