One of the biggest hurdles in nationwide COVID-19 vaccine distribution so far has been getting shots to homebound seniors.
On that front, Alachua County firefighters are working to fill the gaps with a new operation called the “Community Health Team.”
The initiative launched on Jan. 19 and entails the Alachua County Fire Rescue working with the Florida Department of Health in Alachua County to deliver vaccinations to elderly people in their homes.
Through the program, 30 people have been fully vaccinated with two doses, 121 people have received the first dose, 27 people are scheduled to receive the second dose, and 20 people are scheduled to receive the first dose.
