NEW JERSEY – Stop & Shop Tuesday announced that the updated COVID-19 vaccines are available at its more than 200 pharmacy locations across the Northeast for both adults and children over 12.
It will also be available for children over 3 in select locations where access to the vaccine is limited. Seasonal flu shots and the new Respiratory Vaccine (RSV) are also currently available at all Stop & Shop pharmacy locations. Eligible customers can receive immunizations for COVID-19, flu, and RSV during the same pharmacy visit, as the CDC has indicated that these vaccines may be administered alongside each other.
Vaccinations are administered by Stop & Shop’s trained & trusted pharmacists and are at no-cost with most insurance plans.
