From day one, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis touted the state’s “innovative partnership” with the Lakeland-based Publix supermarket chain in expanding the number of locations across the state for seniors 65 and over to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
State officials have not provided an agreement, contract, or even any documentation outlining the terms of that partnership – even after giving Publix nearly 500,000 doses of the vaccine officials call “liquid gold.”
