Wegmans, Acme, ShopRite: New places to get COVID-19 vaccination

The addition of Johnson & Johnson's COVID-19 vaccine has opened up more vaccination locations, some of which allow customers to pick which vaccine they would like to receive.

All nine Wegmans supermarkets began taking appointments on Thursday. CVS and Rite Aid also administers vaccines at numerous pharmacies. ShopRite said it is adding another 30 of its store pharmacies for a total of 69 locations.

Gov. Phil Murphy said that the chains would be offering the Johnson & Johnson single-dose vaccine under the brand Janssen. The vaccines are being provided by the Federal Retail Pharmacy Program.

"We currently have the Johnson & Johnson vaccine in New Jersey but that could change week to week based on what the state allocates to us," spokeswoman Deana Percassi told New Jersey 101.5, adding that vaccinations will begin Friday.

Wegmans said appointments can be made at wegmans.com/pharmacy or by by calling 1-800-207-6099, Monday – Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. According to a recorded message on Thursday afternoon, all available appointments are filled. The link goes to a page with no apparant way to make an appointment.

Customers should bring their insurance card and photo ID to the appointment; a Wegmans online account is not required.

Acme, also mentioned by Murphy as having the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, was accepting appointments on its website at acmemarkets.com/pharmacy/covid-19. The appointment process allows customers to select which vaccine they would like to receive. The chain has 72 locations in New Jersey but not all have a pharmacy.

Murphy said there is no major difference in effectiveness between the Johnson & Johnson, Moderna and Pfizer and said trying to compare the effectiveness of the three brands is "an apples-to-oranges comparison of methodology" of when the vaccine studies were done.

Appointments for all ShopRite locations can be made through the state website. The full list of locations and the vaccination being offered are:
