Eustis, FL. – The Florida Department of Health in Lake County (DOH-Lake) will continue the COVID-19 vaccinations distribution. Please note gate change:  cars will not be able to line up prior to 7 a.m.  As a reminder, there will be a limited amount of spaces in our lot per day.

Once the lot reaches capacity and backs up on Hwy. 27, we will need to close it down due to traffic safety.  As soon as we clear the line, we will re-open again in the afternoon weather permitting.

We hope to establish regular hours of operations and appointments as soon as partner site availability, and regular shipments stabilize.  Day to day information will be shared via our website, twitter and local news.
