Where to get vaccinations in Central Florida By Kate Santich - Orlando Sentinel from May 4, 2021 Several of Central Florida’s largest COVID-19 vaccinations sites have started closing down operations, but there are still plenty of smaller walk-up and drive-through clinics providing vaccines. All Florida residents 16 and older are eligible for the Pfizer shot, although 16- and 17-year-olds must be accompanied by a parent or guardian or have a signed consent form — or both. All Florida residents 18 and over can receive the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines. There’s also a statewide email address for homebound seniors to register to have the COVID-19 vaccine brought directly to them. To request vaccination, email HomeboundVaccine@em.myflorida.com or call 1-866-779-6121. We have compiled a list of vaccination sites across Central Florida that will be updated frequently. Caution: Beware of scams. Do not fill out Eventbrite vaccine registration forms unless they are provided through a county’s website or the links in this list, and do not register for a vaccination appointment that requires payment. However, many providers ask for insurance information if you have coverage. Orange County ORANGE COUNTY CONVENTION CENTER, 9800 International Dr., Orlando: Now open for second Pfizer doses only.
