ORLANDO, Fla. — More than 10 million people in Florida have received a COVID-19 vaccine as large-scale vaccination sites in Central Florida are closing.
The vaccination site at the Valencia College West Campus is set to close permanently at 7 p.m. on Tuesday.
Officials said they will have plenty of vaccine at the site over the next two days.

Anyone who comes should not have to expect a long wait because they move people through quickly, officials said.
This site opened at the beginning of March and has administered more than 200,000 shots.
Even with the vaccine slowdown across the state, this site has seen on average of 1,000 people a day get their shot.
Friday was also the last day for people to get a COVID-19 vaccination at the Orange County Convention Center.
That location gave out more than 270,000 vaccine doses.
Data shows roughly half of Florida’s population has received a COVID-19 vaccine.
