TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) â The City of Midway has a new strategy to get more seniors in Gadsden county vaccinated.
Limited staffing and no sites to distribute the vaccinations are some of the reasons why city leaders in Midway had to re-think their plan to get seniors vaccinated.
The city is partnering with the Gadsden County Health Department to register seniors for the COVID-19 vaccine.
So far, the county has seen more than 600 COVID-19 cases in people 65 and up.
City Manager Linda Dilworth said many seniors in Midway don t have transportation to the vaccination sites in Quincy, so they came up with a door-to-door option.
