FDOH system only works for elderly with computers

The Florida Department of Health Escambia only allows residents 65 or older to schedule an appointment for the COVID vaccination via a survey monkey form.

“Completion of this form confirms interest in vaccination,” stated FDOH Escambia website. “It does not secure an appointment for vaccination. FDOH-Escambia will schedule appointments based on supply availability.”

Pensacola City Councilwoman Sherri Myers told Inweekly that she hopes Mayor Grover Robinson and his staff will set up a system to help elderly citizens without computer access register for the vaccination.

She said, “I encourage people to reach out to their elderly neighbors and help them.”

Myers tried to call FDOH Escambia this morning and received a message that the office was closed.
