The vaccinations are supposed to be prioritized already. Florida prioritization is health care workers first, over 65 second, front-line workers in essential positions third. That is a deviation from the CDC suggestion which put front-line workers before the 75+ group and moved the 65+ group further down the line.
The other day when I looked at the data regarding the number of vaccines given by county in Fl, Sumter County was 5th from the BOTTOM, yet we have more population than lots of those other counties that have had more vaccinations.
