JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is expected to hold a press conference in Sumterville on Wednesday.
Earlier this week, DeSantis said the age to receive the COVID-19 vaccine in the state of Florida will be lowered to 60.
He said this change starts next week.
The governor also said the $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief bill passed by the Senate penalizes Florida due to its lower unemployment rate than other states, such as California and New York, with higher unemployment numbers. The governor said the CARES Act's policy of allotting funds on a per capita basis was more fair.
