Here with more is CVS District leader, Sepideh Manafi, and Pharmacy manager, Sonja Hoang to administer the vaccine. “Covid-19 is not over, in fact there are different strains that appear that requires the public to keep up with their vaccination,” says Manafi. The updated COVID-19 vaccine, released on September 12, 2023, more closely targets currently circulating variants. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone ages 6 months and older get an updated COVID-19 vaccine* to help protect against serious illness from COVID-19. Eligible patients can receive an updated COVID-19 vaccine at least two months after their last dose of a COVID-19 vaccine. CVS® store locations can administer COVID-19 vaccines to patients ages 5 and older.
CVS is ready to administer the vaccine to all who may be at risk” says Manafi. She adds “we take walk-ins; get vaccinated and the downtime is as little as 15minutes and then be on your way.” CVS Pharmacy® follows the most up-to-date federal guidance as it relates to COVID-19 vaccine administration. CVS offers either the updated Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccines for all doses administered to eligible individuals, depending on location. “Getting vaccinated as Mia and Eugene will see takes very little time” says Hoang. She adds “when I am administering the vaccine it’s a small needle poke, a band aid and wait for 15 minutes before leaving CVS.” Manafi says “We also have a program where CVS can come to your business, school or club and administer the vaccine on site.” Don’t wait get vaccinated today.
