VOLUSIA COUNTY, Fla. – All Volusia County COVID-19 vaccine distribution events will be by appointment only following a botched Daytona Beach distribution event earlier this week, county leaders said Wednesday.
On Monday, 1,000 elderly residents camped out overnight in frigid temperatures at Daytona Stadium so they could receive their dose the next morning. The Daytona Beach event was serving seniors on a first-come, first-served basis.
