Federal vaccine sites in Jacksonville area close early Saturday, opening late Sunday Severe weather prompts changes to schedule for federally supported sites
Gateway vaccine site makes switch to Johnson & Johnson shots only
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – All federally supported COVID-19 vaccination sites in the Jacksonville area closed at 3 p.m. Saturday because of severe weather, and they won’t reopen Sunday until 10 a.m.
This includes the Gateway Mall HUB on Norwood Avenue, the Oceanway Community Center on Sago Avenue West and the Carver Recreation Center on 5th Avenue South in Jacksonville Beach.
A spokesperson said the decision was made because “guest and staff safety is a priority.”
The Gateway Mall site currently offers only the Johnson & Johnson single-shot vaccines. The satellite sites and Gateway Mall site are giving second doses of the Pfizer vaccine for those who got their first doses at those sites before April 5.
Those with appointments to receive the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine who were not able to come in Saturday or Sunday before 10 a.m., may come in any time Sunday, no need to reschedule. No appointment is necessary.
