There were 300 vaccine appointments scheduled Tuesday. This is kind of like our soft opening, Sark said.
There are 850 appointments set for both Thursday and Friday.
At the end of January, the state launched a preregistration system to schedule COVID-19 vaccination appointments, which are now open to both people 65 and older and frontline health-care workers.
Individuals who register by visiting myvaccine.fl.gov or by calling 1-866-201-7314 will receive a call from Sharecare, the private company running the preregistration system.
Sark said the process was running smoothly Tuesday, though some individuals without appointments have shown up at the fairgrounds in the hopes of getting vaccinated.

“Our property and sustainability teams are constantly working to make sure our buildings promote wellness, convenience and safety,” said Greg Meyer, executive vice president and head of the D.C. region at Brookfield Properties. “We’ve invested in numerous measures to keep our tenants safe now and in the future.”
