COVID-19 vaccination site moving to Snyder Park; Broward residents can now make vaccine appointments over the phone
By
Fort Lauderdale – Starting Jan. 26, COVID-19 vaccines will be administered at Snyder Park, 3299 SW 4 Ave., by appointment only. Holiday Park will no longer serve as a vaccination site after Jan. 23, according to Mike Jachles, City of Fort Lauderdale spokesperson. COVID-19 testing will not resume at Holiday Park but normal park access will on Jan. 26
The site is a partnership between the Florida Department of Health in Broward County and the city.
Call to schedule a vaccine appointment
Individuals who are 65 and older, and frontline healthcare workers, can call 866-201-6313 to request a COVID-19 vaccine appointment. For those requiring TTY access, the phone number is 833-476-1526.
When people call the appointment number, they will be asked through an automated system to enter information using their telephone keypad. Live agents will call people back to make appointments until all current appointments are filled.
People who receive their first dose of COVID-19 vaccine at Florida Department of Health sites through this new appointment system will be asked to schedule their second dose through this new system.
People who received their first dose of vaccine at a Florida Department of Health site without making an appointment in this new appointment system do not need to make an appointment for their second dose. They should return to the same site on the date written on their vaccination card at the same time as they arrived for their first dose. Other than these individuals receiving their second dose, no one will be served without an appointment.
