Miami-Dade County Launches Phone Option for Vaccine Appointments

Today, Miami-Dade County will release a limited number of COVID-19 vaccine appointments available to people 65 and older, according to state vaccine guidelines. The appointments will be available through a scheduling tool at miamidade.gov/vaccine as well as a new phone line option - (305) 614-2014.

As part of Miami-Dade County's ongoing efforts to distribute the limited supply of vaccines both efficiently and equitably to the community, the County has created a new phone option to make booking appointments more accessible to all seniors 65+.

More information about how to book appointments online and by phone is available here: miamidade.gov/vaccine.

"We are taking urgent action to ensure no communities are left behind and all our seniors 65 and older have equal access to this lifesaving vaccine. To distribute the vaccine equitably to vulnerable Miami-Dade County residents, we are proud to introduce a phone option to expand access to the vaccine to protect our county and move forward together," said Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava.

This week Miami-Dade County is also opening a new vaccine distribution site at Miami Dade College North Campus for those 65+, and will reopen the vaccination site located at Zoo Miami. All County vaccination sites are by appointment only.

Demand for vaccines is currently much greater than existing supply, and Miami-Dade County is working hard to make vaccines available to the community as fast as new supplies are received.
