Florida will be adding all persons age 60 and over beginning Monday, 3/15. We've been vaccinating all those 65 and over since the beginning. Persons with underlying health conditions have been able to get shots at hospitals, if they have been patients of the hospital, for a couple of months. Additionally, beginning Monday, persons that meet criteria from this list, can get vaccinated at state run sites:
I'm not sure, but I think I also heard that Publix, Walgreens and CVS will be following the same guidelines. The state has also partnered with churches across the state to vaccinate underserved communities.
Florida has completed 4,771,036 vaccinations as of today. This is the total number of shots given, not the total number of series of both shots completed.
FEMA run sites here in Florida may have different guidelines.
MOST ENCOURAGING is this:

I am 63 and I have an appt for Monday afternoon for my vaccine. I was able to pre-register on Wednesday, signed up, got a call back within an hour with an appt for both the first and the second vaccines.
I am both excited and a little scared.

Governor Lamont has also opened Most Connecticut businesses on March 15 but has asked residents to continue to wear masks. We will be having cookouts before July 4 as a result.

Not bad since they already finished nursing homes, health care workers, first responders, all teachers and school employees.

Snowbirds. Not even my relatives resent being called that. In fact, they kind of like it. Lots of older people from the north and northeast spend half their year in Florida and the other half in the north and northeast so they get their shots in Florida where they are readily avaiable.
Just in the Villages alone, there were approximately 110,000 residents in 2012 and it has grown since then. There are also many other retirement communities in Florida. Almost 10% of the people living in the Villages were born outside this country.
