FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. – Flagler County announced on its website Tuesday it is putting new vaccine appointments on hold as it moves to the state’s new appointment system.
The county says it is working with the state to assist in the launch of Florida’s new appointment system. That system will be available no later than Feb. 8, according to officials.

In the meantime, appointments are no longer available online. The county says it will now prioritize the more than 10,000 people already on a callback list before additional appointments are made available.
Officials say a new phone number will be provided when the state’s appointment system is up and running.
