On Friday, Publix will begin scheduling COVID-19 vaccination schedules at all 730 Florida pharmacies in the store. Scheduling starts at 7 in the morning

“We are excited to offer scheduling opportunities to every pharmacy in our Florida store,” said Todix Jones, CEO of Publix, in a press release. “We know how important this vaccine is to the people we serve, and we are grateful that we can expand our ability to help our communities in this time of need.”

Appointments cannot be made by calling Publix or Publix Pharmacy.

The online booking system usually opens every Monday, Wednesday and Friday morning for vaccination schedules at Florida Publix pharmacies, as long as the company continues to receive vaccine doses from state and federal governments and except in unforeseen circumstances. Last week, vaccine shipments were delayed due to weather conditions in other parts of the country.

Appointments may not be available in every county during every scheduling opportunity, Publix said. Customers with appointments for the second dose are not affected by any variation in scheduling opportunities and should arrive at the COVID-19 vaccine check-in area on the scheduled date and time.
