Updated 2026-2027 COVID-19 vaccines are now available at CVS Pharmacy and MinuteClinic locations across the United States, according to CVS Health.

Patients can schedule appointments for up to four people at the same time, allowing families and caregivers to get vaccinated together. Additionally, if eligible, patients can receive multiple recommended vaccinations during a single visit, including flu, RSV, and other routine immunizations.

For those who are uninsured, the cost of the vaccine at CVS Pharmacy and MinuteClinic varies depending on the product type and eligibility.
