I, too, registered in early January (can't remember the exact date), but have only received 2 emails since then saying I was still on the wait list. No code for an appointment as yet; however, Walmart is now giving the vaccine and I was able to schedule an appointment at the WM on 466 for this coming Tuesday for the first shot. We'll see how that goes. I was there last Wednesday to get some groceries and pick up another prescription, so I asked them about the vaccine and they told me they were going to start giving it and gave me written instructions to make the appointment. I tried several times on Wednesday to schedule an appointment but kept getting the message that the vaccine was "currently not available in your location," and to choose another location or try again later. On Thursday, I tried again and success!! The locations popped up, I chose one, and a list of appointment times available. I had to sign into my Walmart account to schedule, so if you don't have an account, you may have to create one, but it didn't ask for any "sensitive" info, just asked if I was a FL resident and over 65 and then asked for my DOB. Very easy!
