Getting the COVID-19 Vaccine in NYC

Pfizer/ BioNTech, Johnson & Johnson, and Moderna produced COVID-19 vaccines that were both granted FDA emergency use authorization. Below we highlight important information about the COVID-19 vaccines: 

  • In large-scale clinical trials, both vaccines were over 94% effective in preventing COVID-19.
  • Both Pfizer and Moderna made the vaccines using mRNA; this type of vaccine CANNOT give you COVID-19 and will not alter your DNA.
  • Both vaccines require two doses to create a robust immune response. The Pfizer doses must be administered 21 days apart and Moderna doses must be administered 28 days apart.
  • It is important that the second dose you get is the same brand as the first dose.
  • Vaccines become fully effective about 10 days after the second dose; however, it is still highly important to continue social distancing and mask-wearing even after being vaccinated. There are different types of vaccines that help to prevent infection. The COVID-19 vaccines are being developed so that our bodies develop immunity to coronavirus without actually getting the virus and risking illness.

You can also use New York City's Vaccine Finder to find a vaccination site near you.

How much will the COVID-19 vaccine cost in NYC?

The U.S. government recently bought several hundred million doses of both COVID-19 vaccines. The CDC recently announced that nobody will have to pay for the cost of a vaccine that way purchased by the government using taxpayer dollars. 

However, it is possible to be charged for the administration of the vaccine if you are vaccinated at a private doctor’s office or pharmacy. Our research team estimates that vaccine administration can cost between $16 and $29 per dose. 

After the pandemic is over and the government no longer purchases vaccines, people may have to pay between $25 and $58 for a COVID-19 vaccination. But for now, you should not have to worry about paying for the cost of the vaccine. If you do not have insurance and you are worried about potential administrative fees, call your testing center in advance to inquire.
