As the coronavirus vaccine continues to be distributed across the country, I wanted to make sure you had access to the latest information on how to receive one in our community. The best place to get the most up to date information is via the State of Florida's MyVaccine Web Portal. That website is the official source to pre-register for the vaccine and determine your eligibility.

Below you will find additional helpful resources I have compiled related to the coronavirus vaccine, as well as updates from the Governor’s Office and County Health Departments. While these resources are intended for your benefit, please contact your healthcare provider directly with any questions regarding your personal health and use the State of Florida's MyVaccine Web Portal for official information regarding eligibility and availability.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to our office at 202-225-3026.

*Note: Only permanent and seasonal residents may receive the COVID-19 vaccine in Florida. Only those who can prove state residency using a state driver’s license or other official documents, such as a deed, rental agreement or utility bill, will be permitted to receive shots.
