I hope they start sending more vaccines to Sumter as other counties complete their Senior vaccines. And it would be great if they set up a second mass vaccine area that is closer. Maybe some churches could volunteer their parking lots for Mon-Fri.
Right now the gap between the percentage of those 65-84 and those over 85 who are getting vaccinated is growing. I’m concerned our older folks will find the drive out to Sumterville is too far, and will not sign up for those vaccines, or won’t head out there for their second shot. Is there an organization that is helping our oldest folks to get vaccines?

They have already announced that WinnDixie, Sam's Club, Publix and Walmart....maybe Walgreen's will have shots available shortly. It won't be long before everyone will find it easier to get their shots locally. I believe I read that on a website......FloridahealthCovid.org??
