Thousands of other School District of Manatee County employees have had the opportunity to get vaccinated, whether through the district or going to a pharmacy, since DeSantis said educators who are at least 50 years old could be vaccinated and later expanded eligibility to all educators.
In partnership with MCR Health, the Florida Department of Health Manatee and state officials, the district will have had 5,100 vaccines made available to its employees to date.
