Walgreens has launched the Omicron Booster Program for individuals to receive COVID-19 vaccines. To be eligible for appointment, individuals must meet certain criteria. These are the following:
- Age: Individuals must be 18 years or older.
- Residency: Must reside in the state where the appointment is being made.
- Priority populations: Health care workers, first responders, individuals 65 years and older, and individuals with high-risk medical conditions.
It is important to note that eligibility criteria may vary by state and may change as vaccine supply and distribution guidelines evolve. Individuals are encouraged to check the latest information on the Walgreens website or contact their local Walgreens pharmacy for more information.
In addition, individuals should bring a valid photo ID and insurance information (if applicable) to their appointment. Individuals who are uninsured can receive the vaccine at no cost through the Federal Retail Pharmacy Program.
Walgreens is working diligently to vaccinate as many individuals as possible and encourages everyone to take advantage of the opportunity to receive the COVID-19 vaccine when it becomes available to them. By getting vaccinated, individuals can help protect themselves, their loved ones, and their communities from the virus.
