Can minors receive vaccinations in Florida without parental consent?

Minors in Florida cannot consent to vaccinations. Call your county health department and let them know about your situation.

How to get the COVID-19 vaccine in Florida?

Residents need to show a Florida driver’s license or state-issued photo ID card. Teens 16 and 17 also need to show proof of age (driver’s license or birth certificate or current passport) and have a parent or legal guardian with them at the vaccination to sign a consent form.
