  • What is COVID-19?

    The newly identified coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is caused by a virus called SARS-CoV 2. First identified in China in December 2019, COVID-19 has infected millions of people around the world. While this coronavirus is new, it is not the only coronavirus. Coronaviruses were first identified in the 1960s, commonly infect people and are associated with the common cold.

  • What are the symptoms of COVID-19? Are symptoms the same for variants?

    People with COVID-19 have reported a wide range of symptoms, ranging from mild to severe, that may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus:

    • Cough
    • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
    • Fever
    • Chills/repeated shaking with chills
    • Muscle pain
    • Headache
    • Sore throat
    • New loss of taste or smell

    This is not an exhaustive list. Please consult your healthcare provider for other symptoms that are severe or concerning to you.

  • Who's at higher risk for complications from COVID-19?

    According to the CDC, older adults and people with certain underlying medical conditions, such as heart or lung disease or diabetes, are at higher risk for developing more serious complications from COVID-19. Long-standing systemic health and social inequities have put many people from racial and ethnic minority groups at increased risk of getting sick and dying from COVID-19.

    Your healthcare provider can recommend additional steps you may be able to take to protect yourself. Getting vaccinated is the best way to protect yourself.

  • What should I do if I've tested positive for COVID-19?

    If you've tested positive for COVID-19 you should do the following:

    • Contact your healthcare provider and follow their instructions
    • Avoid public places
    • Wear a mask when you must be around other people. Those caring directly for you should wear masks when they are with you as well
    • Practice self-isolation
  • Are COVID-19 vaccines safe?

    Vaccines have played an important role in protecting the health and safety of communities and nations throughout history. As a critical resource for care in our communities, Walgreens will remain focused on providing safe and convenient access to COVID-19 vaccines.

  • What are the side effects of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 booster shot?

    According to the CDC, side effects from the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 booster shot have mostly been mild to moderate, similar to the initial 2-dose series. The most commonly reported side effects include fatigue and pain at the injection site. Severe side effects, although rare, may occur

  • What is self-isolation?

    If you are told to self-isolate or self-quarantine, you must stay in your home, preferably in a room away from the rest of your household members, wear a mask if you go out to the doctor's office and avoid visitors. Anyone coming into your room should also wear a mask. You should continue to follow everyday illness prevention practices, include washing your hands often, covering coughs and sneezes and disinfecting your home environment.

  • I'm fully vaccinated. Do I still need to be wearing a mask?

    In order to protect yourself and others from the highly transmissible Delta variant, the CDC recommends wearing a mask indoors in public settings if you're in an area of substantial or high COVID-19 transmission, even if you're fully vaccinated. You will also need to wear a mask where required by state, local, tribal or territorial laws and regulations. Local businesses and workplaces may also have rules and regulations around masking.

  • Are customers required to wear a face mask in Walgreens stores?

    Yes. In keeping with CDC guidelines and certain state's requirements, we now require customers to wear a face covering in all our stores, except for children under two years of age and those who are unable to wear a mask due to a medical condition. We've placed signage on our front doors and are making announcements over the store's public address system to remind customers of this requirement. Along with social distancing and extra cleaning measures, this is a simple but critical step we can take to help slow the spread of COVID-19 and keep everyone safe.

  • How is Walgreens helping protect customers right now?
