How and Where to Get COVID-19 Vaccines in Your State

AARP’s 53 state and U.S. territory guides can help you find a shot


Updated versions of the Pfizer, Moderna and Novavax vaccines have been approved for the 2024-2025 season and officials recommend that nearly everyone get this new version of the vaccine.

The updated Pfizer and Moderna vaccines target a more recent strain of the virus called KP.2 which was behind much of this summer’s surge in COVID-19 cases, while the updated Novavax vaccine targets the parent strain of currently circulating variants called JN.1.​

With positive tests, emergency room visits and hospitalizations rising in many areas, health experts continue to encourage all Americans to stay up-to-date on their COVID-19 vaccinations to prevent serious illness or hospitalization. 

AARP’s 53 state and U.S. territory vaccine guides can help you navigate the vaccination process. They provide information on where to find COVID-19 vaccines in your state, whether you’ll need to pay for them and whether health officials say it’s OK to get them at the same time as other vaccines, like the flu shot. These guides will also connect you with state-specific COVID-19 health information and resources. 

Click on your state or territory above to learn more. We’ll update these guides as recommendations change, so check back for new information.
