The COVID-19 Vaccine is currently UNAVAILABLE at Florida pharmacies

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved updated COVID vaccines (2025-2026) for use in adults ages 65 years and older, as well as in individuals ages 5 through 64 years with at least one underlying condition that puts them at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19.

In order for pharmacies in Florida to administer the COVID vaccine an official recommendation must be made by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in the form of the updated booster doses being added to the adult immunization schedule.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) met on Friday, September 19th and unanimously recommended that vaccination for COVID-19 be determined by individual decision-making. ACIP’s recommendation applies to all individuals six months and older. It includes an emphasis that the risk-benefit of vaccination in individuals under age 65 is most favorable for those who are at an increased risk for severe COVID-19 and lowest for individuals who are not at an increased risk, according to the CDC list of COVID-19 risk factors.

Recommendations from ACIP become official policy once adopted by the CDC director, which has not yet happened at this time. As soon as the CDC adds the updated booster shots to the adult immunization schedule we will update our website and Facebook pages to let patients know about availability of the vaccine.
