As a reminder, there is no parking or blocking park entrance or along the right of way. Vehicles will be allowed entry to the park starting at 7 a.m. to begin staging for 9 a.m. vaccinations. Access to the park must come from the south, and vehicles will only be permitted to make a right hand turn into the park. Motorhomes and vehicles pulling trailers will be turned away due to height restrictions.
Each person must bring a valid Florida ID and plan to be in Citrus County to receive their second-round shot, 28 days after their first dose. Seasonal residents may demonstrate residency consistent with the criteria set forth in 381.986(5)(b), Fla. Stat.
Individuals will receive a COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card that lists the date and the manufacturer for the first vaccination, as well as date the second dose is due. Individuals will also receive an appointment date, time and location to receive their second dose from DOH-Citrus. Individuals must keep the COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card in order to receive their second dose from DOH-Citrus.
Only the Moderna vaccine will be given at this time. Prior to receiving the vaccine, individuals will be required to complete the Department of Health COVID-19 Vaccine Screening and Consent. A Moderna Fact Sheet in English and Spanish with information on what to expect during and after the injection will also be given before receiving the vaccine. There will be consent forms available on site for those who do not have access to the computer, or you can visit any Citrus County library to print the form at no cost.
Individuals are encouraged to contact their primary care provider with questions about whether they should receive the vaccine before coming to the site. After receiving the vaccination, recipients will be asked to remain on site for 15 minutes for medical monitoring.
