Scheduling an appointment for the COVID-19 vaccine in Pennsylvania can be frustrating. To help, we're pulling together all the links in one place so you can easily see what is available in south-central Pennsylvania. Although we make every effort to ensure this information is accurate, links and availability can change at any moment.
Is it your turn? First, please visit the PA Department of Health website for information on who is eligible to schedule a vaccine.
When it's your turn, begin going through the list below to find an available appointment. In addition, we have a new tool available for finding available appointments at some of the providers such as CVS and RiteAid.
Weis Markets
Try in the early morning hours on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. New appointments are released at this time.
If you get a white screen stating that appointments are full, do not simply refresh the browser in hopes of seeing an update. You must use your browser's "back" button and click the link again to activate a "fresh" session.
When searching for vaccines, please note that the Zip Code search will only search for Weis stores that are in that zip code. It will not search "nearby" Weis stores to your home zip code. You'll probably want to look up the zip code of your preferred Weis store beforehand.
Once you schedule an appointment: print and bring this form to save time at your appointment.
