Publix and the state of Georgia are working together once again to distribute the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine to select Publix Pharmacy locations. During this distribution, vaccinations will be provided to eligible individuals at 97 Publix pharmacies, by appointment only and while supplies last.
The state continues to select the locations to administer the vaccine, so some pharmacy locations included in previous distributions are not included this time. However, they might receive vaccine doses in the future.
“We are grateful to once again have the opportunity to work with the state of Georgia in its efforts to distribute the COVID-19 vaccine,” said Publix CEO Todd Jones. “With each shipment we receive from the state, we are able to help our communities take a step closer to normal.”
Eligibility
In accordance with the state’s guidelines, vaccinations are currently being provided to first responders, health care workers, individuals ages 65 and older and their caregivers, and residents and staff of long-term care facilities.

Vaccinations are provided by appointment only, while supplies last, through the online reservation system at publix.com/covidvaccine. The system opened at 6 a.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, Feb. 2, for appointment times starting Thursday, Feb. 4. Appointments cannot be made by calling Publix or the Publix Pharmacy.

Customers with health insurance will need to bring their insurance card to their scheduled appointment. Medicare members should bring their red, white and blue Medicare Part B card.
