MANATEE COUNTY, FL (Feb. 23, 2021) – Manatee County will contact 5,100 seniors today and tomorrow to schedule the week's COVID-19 vaccination appointments at Tom Bennett Park for Monday, March 1 and Tuesday, March 2.

An additional 5,100 patients are being vaccinated at Bennett Park this week after last week’s appointments had to be postponed because of the nationwide winter storm that delayed shipment of the vaccine.

To date, 45,594 Manatee County residents have received at least a first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. More than 33,000 shots have been administered at the County’s vaccinate sites at Bennett Park and the Public Safety Center.
