Two Clay hospitals on rollout list for Moderna COVID-19 vaccine


Posted

TALLAHASSEE – Governor Ron DeSantis announced the State of Florida’s initial distribution plan for Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine. The rollout plan includes Ascension St. Vincent’s Clay County and the Orange Park Medical Center.

Florida will receive 367,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine this week, pending Emergency Use Authorization by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Doses of the Moderna vaccine will be distributed to 173 hospital locations that did not receive doses in the first allocation of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. These hospital locations span 43 counties.

The state is able to distribute this vaccine to a large number of hospitals as the Moderna vaccine does not require ultra-cold storage.

Floridians are also encouraged to opt-in to receive updates about the COVID-19 vaccine via text. Floridians can receive these text updates by texting FLCOVID19 to 888777.
