Walmart, Sam’s Club, CVS pharmacies in SC now allow walk-ins for COVID-19 vaccines
Walmart, Sam’s Club and CVS pharmacies in South Carolina now offer walk-in access for COVID-19 vaccines, the companies announced Tuesday and Wednesday.
There are 121 Walmart and Sam’s Club pharmacies scattered across the state, according to Walmart. There are 200 CVS pharmacies allowing walk-ins.
Walk-in slots are available at Walmart and Sam’s Club “as supply allows,” but that shouldn’t be a big problem. South Carolina’s vaccine supply now outstrips demand.
You don’t need to be a Sam’s Club member to get vaccinated at one of the chain’s pharmacies.
Vaccine appointments are also still an option at Walmart and Sam’s Club. Appointments can be booked online at: https://bit.ly/WalmartImmunizations or http://bit.ly/SamsClubImmunizations
CVS pharmacies offer a scheduling option at: https://bit.ly/CVSImmunizations
Each pharmacy may carry different vaccine brands (the three online appointment schedulers show which stores offer what). Some Walmart locations, for example, provide Pfizer-BioNTech shots, while others have Moderna or Johnson & Johnson doses.
Walmart pharmacies are open seven days a week, but Sam’s Club pharmacies are closed on Sundays.
More than 1.7 million South Carolinians have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, state data show. And about 32% of residents 15 or older have been fully vaccinated.
Note: Data in this story are current as of Wednesday, May 5.
