Eligible customers can schedule a vaccine appointment online via special Walmart and Sam's Club web pages, according to Caroline Perry of Walmart. The scheduler will also provide patients with a digital reminder of when it is time to return for the second vaccination, Perry said. Sam's Club membership is not required to sign-up for an appointment, she said. Vaccines are available seven days a week, but the time will vary based on availability of the vaccine, said Perry. Vaccines will be available to those who meet the current phase of vaccine eligibility, which can be found at covid19.ca.gov. Eligibility increased to all residents aged 50 and older on Thursday.
