Any other year, people would be clamoring to get inside Ben Hill Griffin Stadium. Alachua County health department Administrator Paul Myers said that reputation was probably part of the problem at last week’s vaccine clinic.
While the department had 3,000 COVID-19 vaccine slots available for a clinic at the stadium last Friday, only 1,300 people signed up for an appointment, Myers told county commissioners Tuesday.
Some 1,700 slots went unfilled, though the vials weren t taken out of storage and no doses had to be discarded.
