Fearful that their limited supply of COVID-19 vaccines will be snatched up by outsiders, City of Miami officials are launching a “Miami First” effort that will restrict vaccinations to Miami residents only, starting with its elderly population. On Jan. 15, the city announced that it had secured 3,500 doses of the Moderna vaccine. It also announced that City of Miami Fire Rescue (MFR) paramedics would be “setting up mobile distribution pods outside of select senior residential buildings and facilities located throughout the city’s five commission districts.” Those vaccinations started Tuesday, when The Miami Times found Miami Fire Rescue personnel were vaccinating senior citizens at Residential Plaza for the Elderly at Blue Lagoon just south of Miami International Airport in District 1.
