The Massachusetts COVID-19 Vaccine Finder website1 is a tool you can use to find a vaccine appointment. The site gathers available vaccine appointments for mass vaccination (MassVax) sites in one place. This way, you can view all the options at once.
The website shows appointments for MassVax sites, like Fenway Park and Gillette Stadium. It shows appointments for retail pharmacies, like CVS and Walgreens. And it shows other healthcare locations, like clinics and hospitals.
The tool may not include appointments that could be available through a doctor’s office, an employer, or other private locations. Be sure to check in with your primary care doctor or other trusted community resources.

Many people are trying to schedule vaccine appointments. You may experience technical issues. Or you may have trouble locating a site with available appointments. It could take several weeks before you’re able to schedule an appointment. If you have trouble booking an appointment, try again on a different day.
