Dr. Sunil Kumar was the first healthcare worker to be vaccinated last week at Broward Health Medical Center.

Me along with a lot of our healthcare workers, we have been waiting for this moment for a long time,” he said.

PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. – As Gov. Ron DeSantis announced that Florida would receive 367,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine next week, he also said he is aiming for February 2021 to have the state’s general population vaccinated. And while he encourages that people get the vaccine, he did emphasize it was not going to be mandated.
A larger number of hospitals can be included in the Moderna vaccine distribution than the first emergency use authorized vaccine by Pfizer. That vaccine required ultra-cold storage while Moderna’s does not.
