ORLANDO, Fla. – Coronavirus vaccines are quickly becoming available to more people across the U.S. and here in Florida with new eligibility groups and federal vaccine sites opening up.
As of Thursday morning, nearly 1.78 million Floridians have had their vaccinations complete, according to the Florida Department of Health.
However, the newest vaccine sites, four FEMA-run locations, saw a slow start on the first day. The four FEMA COVID-19 vaccination sites opened Wednesday in Orlando at Valencia College as well as Tampa, Jacksonville and Miami, and reported a “tepid” demand on their first-day operation, according to Gov.
