As of March 4, Florida has vaccinated 3.3 million people — 2.5 million of which are seniors. Florida is rapidly closing in on vaccinating 60% of our total senior population due to our Seniors First strategy.

Further, the state of Florida has worked with the faith-based community to administer the vaccine at 70 events in underserved communities, administering more than 55,000 doses of vaccine.  The State has opened 7 permanent sites in underserved communities: https://www.flgov.com/2021/02/25/governor-ron-desantis-announces-six-additional-covid-19-vaccination-sites-in-underserved-communities/
