All those aged 16 and over who live, work, or study in Massachusetts can be vaccinated. Learn more about eligibility in Massachusetts here.
In a related story, CVS announced today that they will accept walk-ins for COVID vaccines at all of their locations across the country and that those seeking vaccines at CVS can also continue to schedule appointments online at CVS.com.
The UMass Vaccine Clinic will also offer walk-up vaccines this week on Thursday and Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The clinic will also continue to book appointments on line.
Important Reminders:
- If you are uninsured, you can still receive a vaccine. The vaccine is free – there is no cost to you.
- Vaccine sites may request documentation, but you are not required to have it to receive the vaccine and you cannot be denied access to the vaccine for not having ID. Documentation is not required to be vaccinated. Sites will NOT ask for proof of immigration status.
- Any data collected for the COVID-19 vaccination program may only be used for public health purposes – not for civil, criminal, nor immigration enforcement.
