When will the general public get the COVID-19 vaccine?
Just how soon until you can get the COVID vaccine? Hal Eisner has some answers.
LOS ANGELES - Dr. James Keany from Providence Mission Viejo Hospital says 20 million COVID-19 vaccine doses are expected this month and another 30 million in January should begin to take care of those in our healthcare and high-risk communities.
As for everyone else, Keany says, “definitely by March and April, this should look like a flu vaccine where you can go into your local provider and get the vaccine.”
Local providers are expected to include a number of neighborhood pharmacies including CVS, which sent FOX 11 a statement saying, “We have an agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services to provide vaccines in our 10,000 CVS pharmacy locations which could be as soon as March 2021.”
