Costco is well known for offering all kinds of products, so customers can go here and stock up on everything they need for the home. Now, it is even possible to get the long-awaited COVID vaccine – 19.

The chain of stores is managing coronavirus vaccines to eligible patients nationwide , as soon as vaccines are available and following state guidelines.

The branches in California, New York, Oregon, South Carolina, Washington and Puerto Rico currently offer doses of the Moderna vaccine for the most part.

Take into account that there are restrictions for the application of the vaccine, and that is currently being prioritized to healthcare and frontline workers , to people from 65 years or more, and to people with conditions that make them have a greater risk of contagion.

Availability also depends on certain state requirements, so you may be eligible in some regions, but not others, so it would be advisable to contact your local Costco to see if they can put it on you.

Costco is firmly committed to helping protect the health and safety of our partners and employees , and to serve our communities, ”said the company, according to Thrillist .

It should be noted that Costco is not the only chain that offers COVID vaccines – 19, as Sam’s Club, Walmart, CVS and Walgreens are also administering doses.
