It's a New Day in Public Health.
The Florida Department of Health works to protect, promote & improve the health of all people in Florida through integrated state, county & community efforts.
No Cost At Home COVID-19 Vaccination Available
The Florida Department of Health in Hillsborough County (DOH-Hillsborough) is encouraging those who are not fully vaccinated against COVID-19 to get their vaccine as soon as possible. Cases are once again on the rise and the vast majority of severe cases and hospitalizations are among unvaccinated persons.
“By now we should have more people vaccinated and it’s very concerning that so many people have chosen to not get vaccinated,” said Dr. Douglas Holt, DOH-Hillsborough director. “The vaccine is safe, effective and widely available. Most doctors have gotten vaccinated. We’ve encouraged our own families to get vaccinated. Your life or the life of someone you care about could be saved by getting vaccinated. In Hillsborough, about 45 percent of the eligible population are fully vaccinated.”
