Gina Dorvil and her husband had trouble securing a vaccine appointment until she heard through word of mouth that she could sign up at her grocery store.
News 6 partner Florida Today reports a community-organized event through the Brevard Hispanic Center, the Brevard Caribbean American Cultural Association and the Episcopal Church brought out hundreds Saturday for vaccines by going into the community and helping them secure appointments.
Dorvil said events like the one Saturday made the process much more accessible. Sign-ups were conducted at Bravo and Thrifty supermarkets in Palm Bay leading up to Saturday.
