CVS is implementing its COVID-19 vaccination program in 19 states, including Virginia and Maryland, administering approximately 200 doses of vaccine per day per location.
Not all CVS locations have them. Currently, there are only 36 stores in Virginia and 18 in Maryland giving the injections, and those stores will use the 37,000 doses they have (26,000 in Virginia and 11,000 in Maryland) by Monday.
All vaccines are being administered only by appointment, and appointments for these first doses are already scheduled.
But CVS spokeswoman Amy Thibault said that the more supplies made available by the federal government, they will be ready and able to expand to more locations and offer additional commitments.
At full operational capacity, she said, they will be able to manage between 20 million and 25 million shots a month across the country.
