It seems possible to obtain the vaccine in the US state of Florida as a tourist:

Unlike many other U.S. states and Canadian provinces, Florida is offering COVID-19 vaccinations to seniors aged 65 and older during the first phase of its vaccine rollout.

On top of that, the state is allowing non-residents — including Canadian snowbirds — to get the shot.

"Anyone that can prove they are 65 years of age and older is eligible to receive a vaccine at no cost in Florida," the Florida Department of Health said in an email to CBC News.

According to reddit, this is possible in Abu Dhabi right now with the Sinopharm vaccine.

Sinopharm (Beijing) vaccine is now available for free in these locations

I have just taken a shot, it is open 7 days a week. Expats as well. Also heard in radio, even with those with visit visa can take. Took me only 30 mins in total.

Abu Dhabi:

  1. Al Wathba South Majlis
  2. Majlis Mohamed Khalaf
  3. Majlis of first astronomer (رائد فضاء)

Al Ain:

  1. Majlis Al Sarooj
  2. Majlis Al Roudha
  3. Maljlis Al Markhaniya.

Notes:

  1. Two shots total, 2nd shot is after 21 days
  2. Travelling freely back to Abu dhabi border from other emirates is possible only after 28 days from 2nd shot, once Al Hosn app shows Green status.
  3. Aged below 12 and above 70 cannot take vaccine.
  4. Preganant and Breast feeding mothers cannot take vaccine.
  5. Emirates ID required for residents.
  6. Timings typically between 9.30 am to 4 pm

Where can I travel to receive a COVID vaccine as a tourist?

As far as I know, currently no country fit your 4 requirements to receive a COVID vaccine as a tourist, and no plan has been scheduled yet to do so. (mostly because governments tend to first focus on their residents, and getting enough vaccines for them is currently still a struggle + not that many countries are open to any tourist).

Regarding clinical trials, this keeps changing; you can track them on https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=COVID-19 and you most likely don’t want to be in a phase 0 or 1.
