According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, individuals over 65 are more vulnerable to illness when it comes to the COVID-19 disease. Because of this, it is recommended that if you are over 65, you get the vaccine and following booster shots.  

It’s important that everyone receive the COVID-19 vaccine. Medicare covers COVID-19 vaccines and boosters at no cost to you. Understanding how to get the COVID vaccine is important to not only your own health, but everyone around you as well. 

Where can you get the COVID-19 Vaccine?  

• Find a location near you: You can get a COVID-19 vaccine in all 50 states. You can use vaccines.gov to find the nearest available vaccination location near you. Using this site, you can filter to find a specific COVID-19 vaccine by zip code. For example, if you are looking for a COVID-19 vaccine in Georgia, simply enter your Georgia zip code and find the nearest and most convenient location near you. Typical vaccination sites are pharmacies and clinics, as well as some churches and centers.  
• Get the vaccine at home:  If you cannot get to a vaccination site due to a disability or other challenges with leaving your home, Medicare may pay for a doctor or provider to give you the vaccination at your home. Contact your physician to ask if they are able to give you the vaccine at home.  

Getting the COVID-19 booster is as simple as finding your first vaccination site. For example, if you are looking for a COVID-19 vaccine booster in Texas, use the same vaccines.gov website. From there you can look for specific vaccines and filter by your 5-digit zip code.
