📢💉Novavax (Nuvaxovid) availability update for: Friday, September 26th, 2025 What’s new today: • There is now widespread availability at most chains nationwide. • We have confirmation that Sanofi will be releasing a product locator, which will reportedly be going live late next week. Link: Nuvaxovid.com/product-locato… • To keep information in 1 post, I’m moving to state reports rather than cities. If you have questions about a specific area, please feel free to ask and I’ll let you know if I’ve heard anything. A few things to remember: 1. It’s always best practice to both verbally and visually confirm that you’re actually receiving Novavax. 2. The product is now more commonly being referred to as “Nuvaxovid”, following Novavax’s BLA approval in May. Most will continue to use the names interchangeably, but make sure that your pharmacy is not confused by the two (or by the similarity to Moderna’s “Spikevax”). 3. If you’re checking for availability, especially in an area where Nuvaxovid has been reported, politely ask if they’re willing to check the fridge for stock, as it can sometimes go “unnoticed” by pharmacy techs. 4. If it’s not available yet, try again in a few days, even if they say they’re not expecting to receive any. Purchasing decisions at chains are made by corporate executives, and store employees are routinely left out of the loop until shipments actually arrive. 5. Continue asking pharmacies to place Nuvaxovid orders. Especially independent ones, but chains as well, where stores can hopefully send your request up the chain even if they cannot directly place orders. Publix: Available at most/all locations in VA, TN, AL, KY, NC, SC, and FL. GA locations are still requiring a prescription for now. Nuvaxovid is available to select on the online scheduler.

Officially, Nuvaxovid is listed as “coming soon” on the main vaccines page, but some have reported success booking a specific appointment further along in the online process.
