Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine offered at select Publix locations

Aug. 11, 2021

To help slow the spread of the coronavirus, Publix Pharmacy is administering the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine to eligible individuals ages 12 and older at all in-store locations in Brevard, Duval, Orange and Polk counties in Florida. No appointment is necessary. This is the first time we’re offering the Pfizer vaccine.

Publix Pharmacy continues to offer the Moderna vaccine and has a limited supply of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine, both of which are available to individuals ages 18 and older. 

Parental consent

For the Pfizer vaccine, in-person parental or legal guardian consent is required at the time of vaccination for individuals under the age of 18. 

Online appointments

Appointments are encouraged for the most efficient vaccination experience and to ensure the preferred vaccine is available. Although not required, appointments for the Pfizer vaccine will be added to the online reservation system at publix.com/covidvaccine beginning Aug. 12, and same-day appointments may be available. Appointments cannot be made by calling Publix or the Publix Pharmacy.

Walk-in vaccinations

Associates who wish to receive a walk-in vaccination must be off the clock for the vaccination and observation period. You will be able to choose between the vaccines offered at your store, pending availability. Those who receive the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine will be provided with an appointment to receive their second dose. The Johnson & Johnson vaccine requires only 1 dose.

Your Publix gift card

If you choose to be vaccinated, you can receive a $125 Publix gift card after completing the full COVID-19 vaccination. Visit the COVID-19 Vaccine page for more details.

Costs and insurance

COVID-19 vaccinations are provided at no cost to you. Be prepared to provide your health insurance card or red, white and blue Medicare Part B card. If you don’t have insurance, have your driver’s license or Social Security number available to complete your registration.
