With growing calls for COVID vaccinations to be opened to more people, Miami-Dade County will begin to offer doses to all school personnel.
Mayor Daniella Levine Cava announced the decision late Tuesday, saying it’s “critical that no available vaccines go unused."
The vaccine will be distributed to all school employees, regardless of age, only at facilities run by the county. Those wishing to receive the vaccine must still make an appointment.
