CVS says it will start distributing COVID vaccines in some NJ stores next week

CVS says it will begin supplying vaccines at some CVS locations in New Jersey from February 11.

The vaccines will be administered at 27 CVS sites across the state, the company said, and you can start making appointments next week. But not all 27 locations will be up and running next week, the company said.

“For CVS pharmacies that will start offering COVID-19 vaccines on February 11, the appointments will be available for booking as early as February 9, when stores receive vaccine shipments,” said CVS in a statement.

There is no pre-registration, but when appointment bookings are available, you will need to register with CVS.com or through the CVS Pharmacy app, the company said.

For those without online access, CVS has created a customer service line at (800) 746-7287, he said. No walk-in vaccines will be provided.

“The list of specific stores will be available on CVS.com as stores receive vaccine shipments and appointments become available,” said spokeswoman Tara Burke, noting that not all will be online at the same time. “The locations and cities will be listed as soon as the bookings are available.”

The company did not list all designated stores in NJ, but said vaccines would be available at pharmacies across the state, including Brigantine, Edison, Elizabeth, Flemington, Green Brook, Hoboken, North Bergen, North Plainfield, Princeton, Seaside Heights, Stanhope, Union, Voorhees and West Orange.

As more offer becomes available, the company will expand to more locations and offer additional appointments, he said.

The vaccines will be available only to people who meet the state’s eligibility criteria, which the company said will be “confirmed by the state before launch”. The company did not say whether it is necessary to be enrolled in the state registration system to be eligible.
