Updated COVID-19 and flu vaccines are available at all
Harris Teeter pharmacies. Customers
can also earn grocery coupons for receiving their vaccines.
MATTHEWS, N.C., Sept. 5,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Harris Teeter
announced today that the new 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine is now
available at all Harris Teeter
pharmacy locations. Customers are encouraged to visit any Harris
Teeter Pharmacy to receive their vaccination or schedule a vaccine
appointment online.
Along with the updated COVID-19 vaccine, Harris Teeter Pharmacy
offers vaccine protection against other common respiratory viruses,
including influenza (flu) and respiratory syncytial virus
(RSV).
"It's incredibly important to stay up to date with your vaccines
each year. Vaccines are crucial in maintaining our community's
health and resilience against evolving viruses," said Lindsay Capozziello, director of pharmacy. "By
getting your updated flu and COVID-19 shots, you are not only
protecting yourself but also helping to safeguard those around you,
particularly the most vulnerable among us."
The CDC recommends that everyone aged 6 months and older receive
an updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine to protect against the
potentially serious outcomes of COVID-19. It is safe to receive
COVID-19 and flu vaccines at the same visit.
Receiving the updated 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine is crucial for
enhancing protection against the latest virus strain. Unlike
previous boosters, this updated vaccine is administered in a single
dose and is now available at all Harris
Teeter pharmacies. Not only does it provide immediate
protection, but it also helps reduce the risk of developing Long
COVID, which can lead to prolonged symptoms after infection.
"At Harris Teeter Pharmacy, we believe in making it as easy as
possible for our customers to stay on top of their health needs,"
Capozziello said. "By offering vaccinations and pharmacy services
conveniently located in-store, we help protect against infectious
diseases and promote healthy communities."
Before the fall and winter seasons arrive, Harris Teeter
Pharmacy encourages everyone to ensure their vaccinations are up to
date. Harris Teeter Pharmacy offers a range of vaccinations
year-round, making it easy to receive the care you need when it's
most convenient for you. Our pharmacy provides access to Flu,
COVID-19, RSV, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, HPV, Influenza,
Measles/Mumps/Rubella, Meningitis, Pneumonia (3 types), Shingles,
and Tdap vaccines.
Harris Teeter customers can earn
a $5 grocery coupon for getting a flu
shot or a $15 coupon for getting a
flu shot and an additional vaccine on the same day. Exclusions
apply.
Care meets convenience at Harris Teeter Pharmacy where customers
can easily schedule an appointment online or simply walk in. Our
experienced pharmacists are available to help determine which
vaccines are appropriate for each family member.
