If you’re traveling through Orlando International Airport, you will no longer be able to get your COVID-19 vaccine while you wait for your flight. MCO announced the abrupt closure of it’s vaccination site in a tweet Tuesday evening. 

They tweeted quote, “we apologize for the short notice and any inconvenience this may cause.” 

MCO has been offering both the Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer vaccines to anyone 12 years of age daily since the beginning of June. 

The closure of that site comes as Orange County sees a spike in coronavirus cases. Orange County’s new positivity rate is around 11 percent, similar to what we were seeing in January.
