Individuals are encouraged to contact their primary care provider with questions about whether they should receive the vaccine before presenting to a vaccination site.

After receiving a vaccination, recipients will be required to remain on site for 15-30 minutes for medical monitoring.

DOH-Volusia will return to this location in 28 days to offer the second dose to those who are due. Future vaccination dates in several locations across the county will be based on vaccine availability. Notifications will be provided to the news media.
