It seems that there is an entirely separate process to get a vaccine if you are medically vulnerable. On Friday I got an update newsletter from City of Wildwood (I had signed up for this). It included this information from the Sumter County Health Department:
At the State of Florida website, there is a tab referring to the vaccination of medically vulnerable individuals. While a list of medical conditions or their severity is not available, over 28,000 vaccines were distributed to 27 large medical centers in Florida. The list of servicing hospitals may change over time. Please know that this activity is performed only by selected hospitals/medical centers (and not the health department). The nearest hospitals that received these doses for this purpose are: Advent Health Orlando, Orlando Health—Orlando Regional Medical Center, and UF Health—Shands Hospital.
So you (or your doctor?) need to contact one of those 3 hospitals to learn how to get on their list.
