When federal distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine begins for pharmacies Feb. 11, Walgreens will be the only provider in North Carolina, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Wednesday.

The Federal Retail Pharmacy Program for COVID-19 vaccinations involves 21 national pharmacy chains and independent pharmacy networks, representing more than 40,000 retail and long-term care pharmacy locations nationwide.
Forsyth County health officials say the number of vaccinations they give each day has nearly tripled since the operation moved to the Winston-Salem Fairgrounds complex.
