Walmart will begin offering vaccinations in West Virginia this week through a federal pharmacy partnership. The state’s pandemic response leader, James Hoyer, said more details about the partnership will be announced soon. Hoyer is the coronavirus task force leader and said in a news release that there’s a firm percentage of the population that lives within 10 miles of a Walmart in West Virginia, as well as all across the country, so it will be helpful with vaccine distribution. Some pharmacy chains like Walgreens have already been part of the federal program, where doses are directly shipped to the participating stores.
