Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Bridge Access Program provides continued access to COVID-19 vaccines at no cost for the estimated 25-30 million adults who would have otherwise lost access now that these products have transitioned to the commercial market.

Under- and uninsured adults can now access COVID-19 vaccine via the Bridge Access Program, which includes partnership with CVS, Walgreens, other pharmacies across Washington and additional Adult Vaccine Providers. CDC's Bridge Access Program provides no-cost COVID-19 vaccines to adults without health insurance and adults whose insurance does not cover all COVID-19 vaccine costs. Get all the info at https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/programs/bridge/index.html.

No-cost COVID-19 vaccines through this program will be available until December 31, 2024, while supplies last. Updates to https://www.vaccines.gov/ will be made in the coming weeks to include all pharmacy locations of the Bridge Access Program.

All children 18 years of age and under have access to COVID-19 vaccines via the Childhood Vaccine Program at no cost to the patient. https://www.vaccines.gov/
