“As one of the first health systems in the region to offer COVID-19 vaccinations to the community, Broward Health was proud of the public’s response,” said Aldo Calvo, D.O., medical director of ambulatory services, Broward Health. “Demand for the vaccine has been great, and we are pleased to partner with the City of Fort Lauderdale and Inter Miami CF to expand our capacity.”
“We are grateful to be in a position to support the City of Fort Lauderdale’s vaccination efforts and begin flipping the page of this pandemic chapter for our community,” said Inter Miami CF Managing Owner Jorge Mas. “We hope our facilities continue to evolve into long-term, versatile venues that serve South Florida from both the entertainment and public resources perspectives for decades to come.”
The vaccinations are free.
