Here's the latest rundown of vaccination sites' eligibility rules across South Florida. The scattershot rollout of the vaccine has made it almost impossible to keep track.
When Gov. Ron DeSantis eased restriction to make vulnerable people eligible for vaccination, the floodgate opened. And now, just about anybody seems to be getting the coronavirus vaccine with the support of doctors who want to get to herd immunity.

NORTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, Fla. – One of the newest groups eligible in Florida to receive a COVID-19 vaccine are those 18 or older deemed by a physician to have a high-risk medical condition. Earlier in the week, state planners said that the only form that would be accepted at the FEMA sites where those meeting that requirement would be inoculated required the Department of Health’s Determination of Extreme Vulnerability form.
On a Friday afternoon briefing, a change was announced. While Thursday it was hammered home a doctor’s note on letterhead or prescription from a physician’s pad would not be acceptable that restriction has now changed and those forms of eligibility will be accepted.
The distribution of the Johnson & Johnson single-dose COVID-10 vaccine is underway at the new government site at Miami Dade College North Campus in Westview.
