All Central Florida Publix COVID-19 vaccination appointments booked

All COVID-19 vaccination appointments at Central Florida Publix locations were filled about an hour after the company open its appointment portal.

When appointments opened just after 7 a.m., some users reported that the website was redirecting them to make an appointment in South Carolina. However, the glitch was fixed a few minutes later.

Florida residents who are over 65, residents and staff members of long-term care facilities, or health care workers were eligible to make a vaccination appointment.
