Some changes have been announced for CVS Pharmacy locations that will be giving eligible residents the COVID-19 vaccine.
Previously CVS said, for the 36 pharmacies across Virginia that would begin vaccinating, appointments were to become available for registering as early as February 9 as stores received shipments of vaccine.
Originally, CVS said they would give the vaccine to people who met state criteria, which as of now includes Phase 1a and Phase 1b but on Monday CVS updated that and said for now they will be administering the vaccine to individuals who are 65+ and who have pre-registered with their local health department. CVS added, "Per the guidance of the VA Department of Health, only individuals who are on their local health department’s wait list are eligible to schedule their appointments at CVS Pharmacy."

CHESAPEAKE, Va. — The Virginia Department of Health is working to speed up vaccine roll-out.
Local health departments are thanking selfless volunteers for signing up and helping vaccinate people.
“For me personally, I think it’s just something that I needed to do,” explained volunteer Christine Walko.
Walko is a board-certified oncology pharmacist. She said when he heard the need for medical professionals to help stick needles in people's arms, she didn’t hesitate to jump in to help.
