PENNSYLVANIA, USA — CVS Health has announced that it will begin to administer COVID-19 vaccines to eligible Pennsylvanians at 10 additional store locations as early as March 14, according to a press release sent out by the company.

These additional locations add to the nine CVS pharmacies in the state that already administered vaccines, bringing the total in the state to 19.

Appointments for this latest round of vaccines will become available for booking on March 13, as these stores begin to receive shipments.

“We’re proud to play a part in increasing access to the vaccine to as many people as possible to enable reopening efforts in the communities we serve,” Neela Montgomery, President of CVS Pharmacy and Executive Vice President of CVS Health said. “Feedback on every aspect of the vaccination process has been incredibly positive, from the digital experience to interacting with our team of health care professionals whose incredible efforts are helping to move us one step closer towards the eventual end of the pandemic.”

The vaccines at these participating CVS pharmacies will be administered to individuals meeting state eligibility criteria, as well as K-12 teachers and staff and childcare workers.

Participating CVS pharmacies in Pennsylvania where patients can receive the vaccine are located in the following counties: Blair, Cumberland, Dauphin, Lackawanna, Lancaster, Monroe, Philadelphia, Schuylkill, Somerset, and Washington.

Patients must register for a vaccine in advance at CVS.com or through the CVS Pharmacy app. Patients can also call CVS Customer Service at (800) 746-7287). Walk-in vaccinations without an appointment will not be provided.
