ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. Some say getting registered to receive a vaccine is challenging in St. Johns County because there are not a lot of vaccines available.
But once you cross that bridge, patients tell First Coast News the process is smooth and efficient at the vaccine site.
Firefighters basically operate the site at the Solomon Calhoun Community Center in St. Augustine. My regular day job is I’m a firefighter with St. Johns Fire Rescue, but lately Lt. Dan Haley has also been working at the St. Johns County vaccine site. He does paperwork and monitors people right after they get their shot.
