COVID-19 vaccine distribution in Collier County began Sunday at 9 a.m. While the appointments are all already filled, there are some things you can do to be prepared.

The drive-thru site is at the Collier County Government Center in Naples. But, there will be consequences for anyone who shows up without an appointment.

Seeing the lines in Lee County full of seniors who camped out overnight upsets Marti Pisha from Naples. “I feel that some of the people who really need it are not able to wait in line. I don’t feel that it’s fair for them.”

She’s glad that Collier County has enacted the appointment and waitlist system, as are many others.
