In San Ramon, the Walmart pharmacy is located in the store at 9100 Alcosta Blvd.

Nationwide, more than 5,100 Walmart and Sam's Club pharmacies will offer the vaccine. Nearly 4,000 of those pharmacies are administering vaccines in medically underserved areas, according to Walmart.

“Now that supply and eligibility have expanded, it’s even more important for us to reach underserved and vulnerable populations to ensure equitable distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine,” said Dr. Cheryl Pegus, Walmart executive vice president of health and wellness, in a statement. “Widespread vaccination is the only way we will eventually end the pandemic and help our country reopen, and we don’t want anyone to get left behind as we enter this new chapter in our fight against COVID-19.”
