When I got my first dose, they gave me a date and time for my second dose. Didn't they do that for you?
My second appointment was for exactly four weeks to the day at the same time.

I don’t see such information on the Lake County DOH site. After our 1st shot at Groveland, we were given a date for our 2nd vaccination but we were told we’d be “contacted” to confirm a time and location for that date. Our date is 3/3 and we haven’t been contacted as yet. |

Did you get both vaccination shots at the Groveland site?

We had the first shot at Groveland. Very organized and less than 2 hours in line. Returned this morning at 9:00, between 8-12 as instructed yesterday by text (and as noted on the card previously), Guess what! Waiting line was at least 2 miles long and at the rear of line was a police car with large sign saying "closed for Covid shots". So we took an alternate route through the industrial park and naturally were stopped by a manned barricade and police. Politely informed that we weren't going to get the second shots anytime today and to come back tomorrow. She said the text yesterday is of no help today and we should "try again tomorrow". Very disappointed, but assume everyone had lined up very early and was just a lot more than anticipated. We will try again, but it seems like they could have advised us this morning via text to save all the frustration.

Groveland Lessons Learned
Your best bet is to get up early and be in line by 0530. It’s early but you will get in with the first wave. Its cooler so take a book, your iPad, the newspaper a box of donuts, or listen to your radio. Yes you will wait about 60-90 minutes but you’ll be done by 0730. A total of 2 hours. Or, go later, wait 2 hours in line along Hwy 27, in the sun and heat, then find out they ran out of vaccine or if your lucky enough to get in, add 2 more hours of wait time fighting the stop ang go traffic line. So 2 hours (yes it’s early) or 4 hours and maybe not even get the shot, today we were in line at 0540, inside staging at 0700, got shots at 0715; left at o0730 and home at 0815. Your peace of mind will thank you.

I got both shots of the Moderna vaccine in Publix in DeLand. I don't think that anyone is able to get the second dose somewhere other than where they got the first one.
I believe that a lot of people are confused about this. When you get your first dose, you will be given a date for the second does. It will be at the same place and should be on the same day of the week unless there is some kind of delay. Publix gives you the same exact day and time. I understand that Groveland and some other sites give you the sate but not the time. But the situation is not that you get your first dose then you go shopping around for an appointment for your second dose. It should all be set up at the same place.

They contact you 1-2 days before your second dose (voice recording on phone.) They want to be sure they have vaccine before you come so don't notify you too far in advance. Lines have been long at Groveland for second doses! Get there very early!
