Ron DeSantis: Publix Stores in Northwest Florida Will Serve as COVID-19 Vaccination Sites

“Our initial pilot with Publix was so successful that I am excited to announce Florida is expanding our partnership into 26 additional Publix pharmacies in five counties in Northwestern Florida,” DeSantis announced on Tuesday.  

On Tuesday, Gov. Ron DeSantis announced the expansion of the state’s partnership with Publix to establish COVID-19 vaccination sites at select Publix locations in Florida.

The governor announced the expansion of this partnership at Publix Super Markets in Niceville and Panama City Beach.

“Our initial pilot with Publix was so successful that I am excited to announce Florida is expanding our partnership into 26 additional Publix pharmacies in five counties in Northwestern Florida,” DeSantis announced on Tuesday.

New vaccination sites will be established at 26 select Publix locations throughout five counties in Northwest Florida: five in Bay County, six in Escambia County, three in Walton County, seven in Okaloosa County, and five in Santa Rosa County.
