The COVID-19 vaccine rollout got off to a slow and confusing start.
But after approval ofa third vaccine and the start of theFederal Retail Pharmacy Program, vaccine distribution has ramped up a bit in recent weeks.
The supply is still limited, though, and many providers will ask you to get on their waitlist.
Below are the vaccine hubs, pharmacies and other providers that are offering COVID-19 vaccines in Central Texas.
As of March 29, all adults are eligible to be vaccinated in Texas.
