Vaccine eligibility opens to Floridians age 60 and up Lines remain short at vaccination sites Monday Updated: Tags: JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Florida opened up COVID-19 vaccinations to anyone age 60 and up on Monday. While the lowering of the age from 65 was expected to bring a new wave of people to state and federal sites and prompt more signups for shots at retail pharmacies, the lines to get vaccinated continued to be short. At the vaccination site run by the Federal Emergency Management Agency at Gateway Mall, many people told News4Jax on Monday that they’ve been anxious to get vaccinated and were surprised to see the line so short.
