​ 1 Million COVID-19 Vaccine Doses Surpassed In Miami-Dade

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FL — More than 1 million residents have received at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine in Miami-Dade County.

As of Monday morning, 1,003,751 people have been vaccinated, according to state data. This includes 94,933 people who have received the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, a single shot, which has been put on hold around the country because of blood-clot concerns.

This total number also includes 524,431 people who have completed either the Pfizer or Moderna two-shot series and 384,327 people who have received at least the first dose of both brands.

“I'm extremely proud that 1 million Miami-Dade residents have now received at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine. This milestone shows just how far we have come in our efforts to protect our community and put the pandemic behind us,” Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said. “I’m forever grateful to all the frontline health workers and first responders who have kept us safe throughout this crisis – and whose hard work to get shots in arms is moving us closer to the end of the pandemic every single day.”

The mayor also encouraged everyone who hasn’t received their shot yet to get vaccinated.

“It’s truly our best shot to protect ourselves and loved ones and move our community forward,” she said.
