Theoretically, they could still get it if they own a home in FL. If they require a FL ID to get it then they're probably out of luck, but if they'll accept a utility bill or something similar with a FL address then they should be fine to get it if they want to get it before they feel safe travelling back to their other state of residence.
"According to the advisory, only those who can prove state residency using a state driver’s license or other official documents, such as a deed, rental agreement or utility bill, will be permitted to receive shots.
Out-of-state health care providers who come to Florida to work with patients can also be vaccinated, according to the advisory, which appears to cover snowbirds, or part-time residents who visit the state for months at a time."
Florida limits coronavirus vaccines to permanent, seasonal residents
A new order by the state surgeon general clears up some of the confusion over who can get a shot.

Doesn‘t impact real snow birds then. When they say rental agreement I wonder how long that has to be. If someone rents a house for 2 weeks or a month does that count or does it have to be a multi-month rental?"According to the advisory, only those who can prove state residency using a state driver’s license or other official documents, such as a deed, rental agreement or utility bill, will be permitted to receive shots.

I was told I could remain blind if I wanted but that all would be given the option by 1st of Feb. I had received written word on the changes on Jan 7th with similar info in the article and then 18th with specifics. It stated "As mentioned in the original letter, the goal is to have all participants who would like to receive the vaccine and are eligible to be scheduled for their first shot by March 1st." I was unblinded on the 19th. A call to let me know the process and take my request to unblind. Then a call to ask some questions prior to taking it to the doctor for approval. Last call to give me the results. How long until you find out?The study site called me today concerning unblinding. Everyone in the Pfizer study will be unblinded and offered shots by start of March or sooner. In other words, there is no option to stay blinded beyond end of Feb (In the original Pfizer plan there was)
I had read about this before, but this was a direct call concerning the change.
It has been in articles for a bit too such as:
Pfizer and BioNTech speed up timeline for offering Covid-19 vaccine to placebo volunteers
Pfizer and its partner BioNTech plan to start offering their Covid-19 vaccine to clinical trial volunteers who received placebo several months earlier than initially planned.www.statnews.com
My in laws in their 70s both received their first dose a couple weeks ago. One Pfizer through a clinic and one Moderna through the VA. Neither had any side effects, not even pain. I was jealous lol
I hope your second time is not as brutal! But glad you got in.
A friend of mine is a snowbird and honestly has been down there more than not, but has an out of state license. They were called to give the FL address. They own a home so not an issue."According to the advisory, only those who can prove state residency using a state driver’s license or other official documents, such as a deed, rental agreement or utility bill, will be permitted to receive shots.

I had issues with my original appointment I scheduled for my dad. Canceled and no reason given. Not supplies as the clinic was still taking appointments for the exact time he canceled. Managed another appointment today with the county for Monday and a back up on Weds. We're gun shy after the last was canceled without warning or reason. He does qualify being over 75

It says rental agreement too. If you don’t own or rent property in FL then by definition you can’t be a snow bird. I would assume they want a more long term rental agreement though, not a one week Airbnb rental of a house or condo.
DVC members from other states trying to coordinate vaccine shot in FL and week long stay at a DVC resort may need to rethink plans. It maybe possible to justify to health authorities that they pay to live in FL as a DVC member.

If we can increase that rate a little bit (no doubt we can and will), and J&J comes online as an effective single dose, we’ll be closer to 100 million completed and protected in 100 days, not just 100 administered doses.
Once/if J&J is approved, I hope we increase our national stated goal to reflect a lofty but achievable target.

1.3M today after 1.6M yesterday. Looks like a good trend

I wouldn‘t expect DVC stays to count. It shouldn‘t. A timeshare or a hotel stay is not the same as owning a property or renting long term.
It'd probably be best to use the 7 day rolling average....

7 day average looking good too. Remember that Monday was a national holiday too. The average over last 3 days (Tue-Thur) is almost 1.3M a day. Hopefully that’s the result of a permanent ramp up.

Does anybody know how they are tracking this? For example, for FL, do they report what FL reported as yesterday's doses or do they take the total from today's report, subtract the total from yesterday's report and use that number (like they do with deaths)? Those two numbers are very different as I expect far more than 35,444 doses were administered yesterday and will backfill a lot by this time next week.

We’re having this problem in school. 12-15 staff out the last two days. So can we get teachers up there on the list?
I have a question for those that get the lucky first shot.
Does getting a extra dose guarantee that you get a second shot on time?
I was going to try to get a leftover shot myself but I don’t want to try for it unless it means I will also receive the second shot.
