Dallas area Walgreens pharmacies are now offering same-day COVID-19 vaccine appointments to patients age 16 and older to provide more convenient scheduling options and further improve accessibility to vaccination.
Starting Thursday, CVS and Walgreens in the Dallas area are now offering same-day vaccine appointments.
Walgreens
Walgreens is accepting same-day appointments for COVID-19 vaccines and in some cases may be able to set appointments for walk-ins at certain stores. Patients are advised to check with their local store to see if walk-in appointments are available.
Those ages 16 and up are highly encouraged to set an appointment at Walgreens.com/ScheduleVaccine or by calling 1-800-Walgreens (English and Spanish available).
CVS
CVS Pharmacy locations across the U.S. are now accepting walk-in COVID-19 appointments, including 800 locations in Texas with no appointments needed. COVID-19 vaccine appointments can be scheduled as soon as one hour away at CVS.com.
"We continue to orchestrate an all-out effort to vaccinate the nation against COVID-19," said CVS Health President and CEO Karen S. Lynch. "Thanks to the dedication and effort of our colleagues, I am proud to say we helped achieve the President's accelerated 100-day goal of 200 million vaccines and have administered over 17 million COVID-19 vaccine doses to date. Our customers continue to give us high satisfaction scores based on their interactions with colleagues and our customer-centric digital approach for scheduling appointments."
