ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – Publix supermarkets have again expanded the counties where the grocer is offering coronavirus vaccine appointments and with the latest addition now all of Central Florida’s 10 counties have Publix pharmacies with shots.

1. I wonder why my county (Broward) has been left off that list....

Palm Beach county above and even Monroe county below are included on that list, but not Broward (or Miami-Dade).

2. So I waited Two hours on line to get a "spot" to register.. No joy..

My central florida county filled up fast. The only places left in and around Jacksonville.. To far for me to travel..
I'll try again on Friday.. I'm also registered with the Florida health Dept and any place else a geezer can get a "jab"...

3. Went to the Publix site at 7 this am

and sat on it 2 1/4 hours until it took me to "sign up". At that point my county wasn't even listed as an option. I am in Pinellas which voted blue last election. Publix has been catering to red counties from the get-go. Another batch comes in for Friday 7 am signup. I will give it the old college try but am not expecting much.
