I did hear that our Sumter county first batch of vaccines meant for us, somehow got redirected to Gainesville for their medical staff. I cannot prove that, but my husband told me that and he is usually quite good at checking the veracity of things he tells me.

P.S. I tried to get an appointment at Publix at Marion County but now they are all booked up.

I know, knowing people as I do, that there will be some who use sneaky, underhanded ways to get ANYTHING they want. But most Villagers do not. I don't know why. As a group most of us are pretty good scouts.
Gracie, FYI, you now are going to hear from someone in the villages who got the vaccine. My wife and were able to sign up Wednesday, via website, and we got the first shots yesterday at the Wildwood Community Center. We are both over 65, we were lucky enough to get thru and get a appointment.
