THE G U L F WINDS CA RE S FO UNDATION by Morgan Cole
In many ways, credit unions are much like regular banks. They offer a multitude of financial products and services you’d expect to find at a traditional bank, but there’s one characteristic that really sets them apart—the people who profit. Credit unions are not-forprofit, and each of its members are also owners. Consequently, it’s the members, not bank executives or stockholders, who reap the benefits of a credit union’s investments. Those benef its can most clearly be seen in credit unions’ lower loan rates and overall lower fees. But the real credit union difference isn’t limited to just monetary savings and f inancial services. Most credit unions give back to local communities and charities in a variety of creative and generous ways. Some work to promote economic and social justice through outreach to low-income, rural and at-risk populations, while others provide free f inancial literacy services to adults and children. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the many ways in which Gulf Winds Credit Union is dedicated to making an impact in the communities in which it serves. Gulf Winds believes in the credit union philosophy of “people helping people” and the value of being an active part of the communities where its members and team members live, work, worship and attend school. They put this belief into action through annual donations, sponsorships and volunteer hours to support the local communities they serve. “Gulf Winds is serious about local philanthropy and we want to do our part to create a better community for our members, team members, neighbors, families and friends that live
right here,” Gulf Winds Credit Union Public Relations Specialist, Frank Giammaria said. In the last decade, Gulf Winds has given back more than $1.5 million to support local charities and communities throughout its service areas. Gulf Wind’s philanthropic activity in Pensacola alone is more than phenomenal. True to their holistic approach to community success, they make sure to award donations in all three regions they serve throughout Pensacola, Tallahassee and South Alabama.
2021 Gulf Winds Cares Foundation scholarship recipient, Jacob Greeson
contributed a $125,000 gift to their annual campaign for a new warehouse. “The generous support from organizations like Gulf Winds allows us to better help those in need,” Manna Executive Director, DeDe Flounlacker said. In 2020 alone, Gulf Winds provided donations to support core programming initiatives for more than 40 non-profit organizations. Some of the past projects have funded and supported organizations like Ronald McDonald House of Northwest Florida, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwest Florida, Junior Achievement and many more.
Gulf Winds is serious about local philanthropy and we want to do our part to create a better community for our members, team members, neighbors, families and friends that live right here.” They don’t just donate to one charity each year and call it day; contributions to these organizations range from $1,500 to $125,000 gifts for capital campaigns. When Manna Food Pantries’ building flooded five years ago, Gulf Winds quickly reached out and provided them with trailers to work out of so they could continue to feed the community without interruption. Once the organization was able to get back on its feet, Gulf Winds went above and beyond and
This year, Gulf Winds kicked-off their philanthropic efforts with a new giving strategy in order to create a more sustainable funding source for future giving efforts. In January 2021, the Credit Union’s board of trustees and leadership team established the Gulf Winds Cares Foundation to formalize and manage the Credit Union’s annual giving and philanthropy efforts as a non-profit 501(c)3 organization based on four pillars of service:
elder ser vices, youth services, basic needs and financial education. “The establishment of the Foundation gives the Credit Union a vehicle to provide dependable, long-ter m support to key community organizations that are truly helping people,” Giammaria explained. The Foundation began awarding annual donations to key partners based on the newly established pillars of service in early 2021. Each quarter, Gulf Winds will focus its giving efforts on one of the four pillars awarding donations to a designated set of organizations throughout the fiscal year. Some of the Credit Union’s most recent giving highlights include a $100,000 contribution to to help fund the purchase of PPE for first responders and staff at Sacred Heart Hospital at the onset of the pandemic and $25,000 to support victims of Hurricane Sally. Already having donated more than $25,000 to support local charities this year, Gulf Winds’ team members have truly embodied the spirit of giving. The team also provided a donation to the Children’s Miracle Network at the Studer Family Children’s Hospital as part of their casual jeans day program. “Creating the Foundation is an exciting new chapter in a long history of giving back to the community. This new pillar-based giving strat-
WE’RE SOCIAL!
egy will help to ensure that this type of funding can be depended on year after year, helping our partners spend more time serving people and less time fundraising,” Giammaria explained. Having previously worked in fundraising and development, Giaimmaria understands what it’s like to be on the other end of the fundraising spectrum. He knows the work it takes to secure donations and funding from corporate sponsors for needed projects and operation costs. The Foundation’s mission is to help these organizations be able to skip this step so they can focus more on their overall goal—to help others. In addition to providing quarterly donations to key community partners within each of the four pillars of philanthropy, the foundation will also provide direct support to Gulf Winds members and their children by awarding four $5,000 scholarships to deserving students each year. The idea of “people helping people” might seem like a simple concept, but there is no denying that it has the potential to make a big impact. With philanthropic partners like Gulf Winds, charities and social service organizations will be able to rely on continued support for their core programs and further their missions within our local communities. •

NOMINATIONS SOUGHT FOR ANNUAL PRO BONO AWARDS The Florida Bar has issued a call for nominations for the annual pro bono service awards, which honor lawyers, judges, law firms and associations that have contributed extraordinary pro bono service. The deadline for most nominations is October 8. Pro bono publico means “for the public good,” and pro bono legal service is just one way that attorneys do their part to help make their communities better. In 2019–20, the last year reported, Florida Bar members collectively contributed more than $6,369,000 to legal aid organizations and donated 1.3 million hours of free legal service. Every year, in a ceremonial session of the Florida Supreme Court, more than two dozen lawyers and judges are honored by the court and The Florida Bar for the free legal assistance they have provided. For each of these members of The Florida Bar, as well as a law firm and a voluntary bar association,
this honor underscores a professional commitment to service and acknowledges the many hours of pro bono work performed to help children, victims of human trafficking, the elderly, refugees, the poor and countless others who wouldn’t be able to afford the legal assistance they so badly need. The 2022 pro bono service awards ceremony will be held at the Florida Supreme Court at 3:30 p.m., Thursday, January 20. The road to this annual ceremony begins now, with the call for nominations.

PENSACOLA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT MAKES WAY FOR EXPANSION AMID UNPRECEDENTED GROWTH Last week, Pensacola International Airport said goodbye to the former air traffic control tower and terminal radar approach control building, clearing the way for future expansion as the airport continues to see record-breaking numbers. Located on the north end of the terminal, the building was for decades the work area of air traffic controllers, technicians, and support staff has now been demolished (photos and video available at www.flypensacola.com/newsinformation). This structure was built in the 1960s and was designed to accommodate all the Federal Aviation Administration activity at the airport. Operations housed within included air traffic control tower, terminal radar approach control facility or TRACON, flight service station, communications equipment, and administrative spaces. In 1994, a new stand-alone tower was constructed to give controllers the ability to view the airfield without
obstruction, which is still in use today. All other FAA activity remained at the north end location until 2007, when the new facility was completed next to the tower and operations at the old TRACON were closed. There have been discussions over the years about converting the structure into office space or other uses, but airport directors have always agreed the location would someday be required for the growth of the airport and the terminal. “This week marks a milestone that many airport directors before me would be excited to see happening,” said Airport Director Matthew Coughlin. “The demolition of this structure, along with other enabling projects, paves the way for future expansion outlined in our master plan.” Pensacola International Airport’s master plan goes out 20 years and includes several projects that enable the addition of a new concourse. Some of these projects include removal of the old
PENSACOLA BEACH CELEBRATES FIRST SEA TURTLE HATCH OF THE SEASON Pensacola Beach celebrated its first sea turtle hatch of the season Tuesday night, Aug. 11. Sixty-one loggerhead hatchlings safely reached the Gulf of Mexico, despite being disoriented by artificial lighting. After this first hatch, there are currently 25 nests on Pensacola Beach and Perdido Key with three loggerhead nests discovered on Pensacola Beach last week. “This is the first hatch of the season for Escambia County nests and more will follow in the coming weeks,” said Marine Resources Division Manager Captain Robert Turpin. “After a slower than normal start, nesting activity picked up through late June and July, so nests will likely continue to hatch into September and October.” Nearly 60% of all turtle hatchlings will be disorientated by land-based lights, which can cause them to wander away from the Gulf of Mexico. Hatchlings that don’t reach the water quickly are at risk of dehydration, starvation and predation. Disoriented hatchlings can also wander into busy roads, garages and swimming pools. Every hatchling counts! Help Protect Hatchlings Turtles by remembering: • Lights Out! Both hatchlings and nesting turtles need dark beaches to find the Gulf of Mexico. Leave the flashlights and cell phones at home or use a red flashlight when on the beach at night. Turn off beach-facing lights and close windows and curtains to keep our beaches dark.
• Leave Only Footprints! Remove all furniture and toys from the beach when you’re done for the day, including hammocks, tents, canopies, chairs, toys and sports equipment. • If You Dig it, Fill It! Large holes, trenches and moats create dangerous obstacles for hatchling and nesting sea turtles. Avoid digging large holes on the beach and flatten sandcastles and fill in holes at the end of your day. If you see a nest hatching or encounter hatchlings turtles on the beach, call Escambia County Marine Resources at (850) 426-1257 or (850) 554-5869. If you encounter a nesting turtle, turn off all lights and retreat a safe distance away. If you are a property manager or owner and are interested in how you can make your property more turtle-friendly, please contact Samantha Bolduc at (850) 595-3460 or smbolduc@myescambia.com. For more information about sea turtles in Escambia County visit www.myescambia.com/seaturtles. All sea turtle work performed by Escambia County was completed under Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission permit #032A.

Most recently, PNS completed the construction of an airside remain overnight aircraft ramp that will afford additional capacity to park commercial service aircraft. “In order for us to achieve the expansions outlined in the master plan, we will need to complete the smaller enabling projects systematically,” said Assistant Director for Planning and Engineering Ken Ibold. “Our engineering and financial teams are working now to develop and set into motion that timeline.” This summer, Pensacola International Airport experienced exponential growth in passengers in comparison to 2019. This growth has accelerated expansion plans. According to the master plan, PNS

FLORIDA SEES TOURISM REBOUND IN SECOND QUARTER
FEDS RAISE CONCERNS ABOUT SCHOOL MASK ORDER
JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA
RYAN DAILEY NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA
TALLAHASSEE — Florida attracted 31.7 million visitors in the second quarter of this year, as the state continued to expand tourism-marketing efforts and COVID-19 vaccinations became readily available. The total was a 16.3 percent improvement from the first three months of the year and was 223.4 percent above the second quarter of 2020, when the global pandemic devastated the state’s vital tourism industry. The 2021 visitor numbers from April 1 through June 30 were also just 2.2 percent below where the state was in 2019, a year when the state was unknowingly at the end of a decadelong run of annual record-setting tourism numbers. Dana Young, president and CEO of the tourism-marketing agency Visit Florida, said in a statement Sunday the growth this year represents an “incredible achievement for our state’s economic recovery and underscores the effectiveness of Visit Florida’s marketing.” Florida’s second-quarter numbers were driven by travelers from other parts of the United States. During the three-month period, Florida drew 30.563 million domestic visitors, representing a 215.9 percent increase from the same period in 2020 — and an increase from the same period in 2019. “Our rebound campaigns have not only helped propel travel well past 2020 levels, but a 6 percent increase from 2019 domestic visitation as well,” Young said. “These efforts have also been crucial for conveying the safety and diversity of our state, which is home to infinite vacation options from coast to coast.” Young has made a goal of topping a state economist’s projection in January that the tourism sector will not make a full recovery until 2024. Economists later revised the projection for a return to “normal” for overseas travelers to the 2022-2023 fiscal year. Florida’s recovery has benef ited from other states shutting down marketing efforts for most of 2020 after the pandemic closed hotels, theme parks and tourist attractions. A marketing rebuild began last summer and has continued this year — from first pitching Floridians on exploring the state, to trying to attract travelers from other parts of the U.S., to expanding attention in May to Mexico and England. Still, the road remains bumpy for tourism officials. Florida in recent weeks has been one of the hottest spots for coronavirus cases driven by the highly contagious delta variant. That resulted in Walt Disney theme parks again requiring guests to wear face masks while indoors, on attractions and in enclosed transportation.
Masks remain optional indoors, regardless of vaccination status, for guests at other major theme parks, including Universal Orlando, SeaWorld and Busch Gardens. Florida also is getting hit with negative media attention for water quality issues such as a red-tide outbreak that led this summer to massive fish kills in the Tampa Bay area. “Moving forward, Visit Florida remains wholly focused on driving even more success for Florida’s tourism economy and showcasing everything our great state has to offer to travelers,” Young said in the statement Sunday. Florida could be bolstered in the coming months and into the winter season as cruise ships have started returning to sea and by a partial return of travelers from Canada, which this month opened its border to vaccinated Americans. The Biden administration has not made a similar border decision, but pressure has been mounting from the tourism industry. “Reopening the U.S. land border to fully vaccinated Canadians would mark a good starting point towards rebuilding our own travel economy, and the Biden administration should reciprocate this policy decision — given the high rate of vaccination across Canada — without further delay,” U.S. Travel Association President and CEO Roger Dow said in a statement last week. Florida’s second quarter numbers showed 1.115 million overseas travelers, a nearly 95 percent jump from the first quarter. The estimated 15,000 Canadian visitors in the second quarter was a 74.1 percent improvement from the same period in 2020, but down 56 percent from the first quarter of this year. Two years ago, Florida drew 930,000 Canadians, 2.646 million overseas travelers and 28.83 million domestic visitors in the second quarter. Visit Florida received $50 million in the state budget that started July 1 for marketing efforts. Another $5 million is calculated into the agency’s $121.2 million budget from the U.S. Commerce Department Economic Development Administration through a federal stimulus law known as the CARES Act. An additional $25 million in federal pandemic stimulus money is coming through the American Rescue Plan Act. Private tourism groups and businesses are expected to provide $9.1 million in cash and $54.1 through “cooperative advertising” and other offsetting expenses. For the first half of this year, Florida totaled 58.943 million visitors — up 47.6 percent from the first half of 2020, but down 13.6 percent from 2019, when the state was on pace for a record 131.422 million visitors. Last year, Florida ended with 79.338 million visitors.
TALLAHASSEE — The U.S. Department of Education is “deeply concerned” about Gov. Ron DeSantis’ executive order seeking to ban school mask mandates and is ready to help districts directly, the federal agency said in a letter to the governor Friday. “Florida’s recent actions to block school districts from voluntarily adopting science-based strategies for preventing the spread of COVID-19 that are aligned with the guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention puts students and staff at risk,” U.S. Education Secretary Miguel Cardona wrote to DeSantis and Florida Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran. The letter also said President Joe Biden’s administration will work with school districts and educators directly if the Florida Department of Education does not distribute federal pandemic aid to the districts. Cardona wrote that the federal American Rescue Plan Act signed by Biden in March allocated some $7 billion to support Florida schools. Florida has not submitted a plan to the federal government about how it intends to spend federal relief money earmarked for schools, though the issue is on the agenda for a State Board of Education meeting on Wednesday. Plans were due on June 7. “In fact, it appears that Florida has prioritized threatening to withhold state funds from school districts that are working to reopen schools safely rather than protecting students and educators and getting school districts the federal pandemic recovery funds to which they are entitled,” Cardona said in the letter. In a separate letter to Florida district superintendents Friday, Cardona wrote that the U.S. Department of Education “stands with you” in enacting universal student mask policies despite the state’s efforts to prohibit them. Cardona’s letters came on the same day that a second Florida district said it will go against the state’s order that schools allow parents to opt out of student mask policies without citing
FDA ISSUES WARNING ON PATIENT WRISTBANDS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Monday sent a letter to manufacturers of medical devices telling them to double-check colors related to wristbands worn by hospitalized patients. The letter was issued after the Food and Drug Administration became aware that a manufacturer provided purple wristbands for patients to wear to flag that they had a particular medical implant. Purple also is the color of wristbands that hospitals use to denote patients with
particular reasons. The Broward County School Board voted Tuesday to enact an indoor mask requirement for students with exceptions only when parents submit doctors’ notes. State education officials have argued the mandate violates a Florida Department of Health rule that helped carry out DeSantis’ July 30 executive order against mandatory masks. Corcoran wrote a letter Tuesday to Broward school officials demanding a response “documenting how your district is complying” with the health department rule. Corcoran’s letter, in part, threatened to withhold funding to school districts “in an amount equal to the salaries for the superintendent and all the members of the school board” if the districts moved forward with requiring doctors’ notes. In a response letter Friday, district officials argued that Broward schools are taking “prudent and responsible measures” to mitigate COVID- 19 with the mask requirement. The district also contended that it is in compliance with the health department’s rule because students will be able to take off masks when eating, “actively participating in an indoor or outdoor practice or competition,” receiving necessary medical care or experiencing trouble breathing. Interim Superintendent Vickie Cartwright and Broward School Board Chairwoman Rosalind Osgood, who signed the district’s response letter, said local hospitals have been “overwhelmed with new COVID-19 patients.” The school officials also urged Corcoran to “seriously consider the appropriateness” of withholding funds to the district, arguing such a move would “represent a reduction to the general fund allocation and may impact services to students.” The State Board of Education has scheduled an emergency meeting Tuesday “to consider the compliance of school districts, including Broward and Alachua” with the health department rule and a new state law known as the “Parents’ Bill of Rights,” according to a notice of the meeting.
“do not resuscitate orders.” The American Hospital Association in 2008 called on hospitals to standardize colors of wristbands as a way to improve safety. Red wristbands are for patients with allergies, yellow wristbands are for patients who are at risk of falling and purple wristbands identify patients with “do not resuscitate orders.” William H. Maisel, director of the Office of Product Evaluation and Quality Center for Devices and Radiological Health at the FDA, said the agency became aware of concerns about potential confusion in a recently submitted complaint. “At this time, the FDA is not aware of reports of patient harm related to the color of device identification patient bracelets or wristbands,” Maisel wrote in the letter.

GROUPS SET STAGE FOR LAWSUIT OVER MANATEE PROTECTIONS JIM SAUNDEERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — With more than 900 manatee deaths this year in Florida, conservation groups signaled Monday that they plan to file a lawsuit against the federal government over “critical habitat” areas for the sea cows. The Center for Biological Diversity, Defenders of Wildlife and the Save the Manatee Club filed a notice of intent to sue the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, alleging that it has violated federal law by not updating designated critical-habitat areas to better protect manatees. Florida has had at least 905 manatee deaths this year, already exceeding the previous annual record of 830 deaths in 2013, according to Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission numbers. Among the factors has been poor water quality in areas such as the Indian River Lagoon that has caused a significant loss of seagrass, a key source of food for manatees. “Revised critical habitat is necessary to provide these imperiled marine mammals life-saving protections, to enhance their recovery and to reduce the risk of their extinction,” said the notice of intent to sue, which must be filed 60 days before
an actual lawsuit. It alleges violations of the Endangered Species Act and a law known as the Administrative Procedure Act. The notice said the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service designated critical habitat for manatees in 1976, listing waterways known to be concentration areas for manatees. Critical habitat was designated in Citrus, Hillsborough, Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte, DeSoto, Lee, Collier, Monroe, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach, Martin, Volusia, Brevard, Nassau and Duval counties, according to the notice. But the conservation groups contend that the federal agency did not comply with later changes in law that required designation of more-specific critical habitat areas that could bolster protections. As an example, a news release from the conservation groups Monday said the 1976 designation “does not describe any specific physical or biological features, like seagrass or warm water springs, that are essential to the conservation of the manatee.” Manatees were reclassified in 2017 from “endangered” to “threatened” under the Endangered Species Act, but this year’s record number of deaths has led to calls to reimpose the endangered classification. U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan,
TAB FOR DESANTIS, DIGNITARY SECURITY NEARLY $4.85 MILLION JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — Florida taxpayers spent nearly $4.85 million during the past fiscal year to protect Gov. Ron DeSantis, his family, the governor’s mansion and various visiting dignitaries, according to a state report released Monday. The bulk of the costs during the 20202021 fiscal year, nearly $4.82 million, went to guarding DeSantis and members of the first family, along with securing the governor’s mansion, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s annual “Report of Transportation and Protective Services.” During the 2019-2020 fiscal year, the cost to protect DeSantis, the first family and the governor’s mansion was a similar $4.78 million. While offering a glimpse of protection, the report doesn’t outline how the security details were staffed or how they operated for the governor or visiting dignitaries. The costs were topped by nearly $3.82 million spent on DeSantis, with more than $1.83 million going for the salaries of law enforcement officers who provided security for the governor and $1.984 for costs tied to transportation. Costs for protecting First Lady Casey DeSantis and members of the first family topped $463,000, with $455,665 going to law enforcement salaries and $7,823 tied to the first lady’s transportation. The governor and first lady have three young children. An additional $512,247 was spent on
salaries and about $24,821 went toward other expenses related to protecting the governor’s mansion and grounds. The report also listed 17 expenses, totaling about $32,790, to provide protective details for visiting dignitaries. The report said state law requires the Florida Department of Law Enforcement to provide security to people visiting the state for whom “failure to provide security or transportation could result in a clear and present danger to the personal safety of such persons or could result in public embarrassment to the state.” The biggest expense, $6,283 for security and transportation, went to protecting then-Utah Gov. Gary Herbert and his family while they were on “personal” business in Orlando from Oct. 15 to Oct. 21. Similar coverage, for personal or official business, was provided to the governors of Puerto Rico, South Dakota, Mississippi, Tennessee, Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The state spent $1,289 on security when then-U.S. Second Lady Karen Pence was in Jacksonville with former Labor Secretary Eugene Scalia to launch an employment assistance program for military spouses at the end of September 2020. Another $1,607 was spent when presidential daughter-in-law Lara Trump, the wife of Eric Trump, was in Jacksonville with former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi and Katrina Pierson, a senior adviser to the then-President Donald Trump’s campaign, on Sept. 16.
R-Fla., and U.S. Rep. Darren Soto, D-Fla., announced last week that they were introducing legislation to designate manatees as endangered. “Manatees are beloved, iconic mammals in Florida,” Buchanan said in a prepared statement. “This year’s record-breaking number of manatee deaths is staggering and extremely concerning, which is why upgrading their ESA (Endangered Species Act) status is absolutely critical. We must do everything we can to protect these gentle giants and Florida’s official marine mammal.” Along with a loss of seagrass linked to poor water quality, other factors that have contributed to manatee deaths have been a loss of warm-water habitats in the winter, red tide and being struck by boats, according to Monday’s notice. The 905 deaths reported this year through Aug. 6 were more than the combined number of deaths in 2019 and 2020, according to a report posted on the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission website. Deaths totaled 369 in 2019 and 402 in 2020. During a discussion of manatee deaths during a Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission meeting this month, Commissioner Mike Sole warned that solving the seagrass problems won’t
11 NORTH FLORIDA COUNTIES LOWEST IN VACCINATIONS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF The state’s lowest vaccination rates against COVID-19 are in 11 rural North Florida counties where fewer than 40 percent of people had received at least one vaccine dose, according to a report released Friday. Statewide, 65 percent of people ages 12 and older had received at least one dose, the state Department of Health report showed. But the 11 counties below 40 percent were Baker,
happen quickly. “A couple of things that are, you know, scary things to say, but you know the long-term solution of habitat restoration, that’s seagrass restoration, doesn’t happen overnight,” Sole, a former secretary of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, said. “So, I call it a five- to 10-year process. … We really can’t start planting grasses until water quality is reasonably squared away in certain parts.” Commission Chairman Rodney Barreto said an estimated 7,520 to 10,280 manatees in Florida waters was a success story, as the animals were no longer considered endangered with the 2017 reclassification. Barreto also complained about manatee conservation efforts that have focused on interactions between boaters and manatees. “These commercials are to kind of rip people’s hearts, which to me is a little bit of a disservice,” Barreto said. “I mean, I get it. It’s a fundraising tactic, and they raise a lot of money. But I think the public should know that it’s red tide, it’s the disease out there, it’s forage, and then there are boats.” — News Service staff writer Jim Turner contributed to this report.
Calhoun, Dixie, Gilchrist, Hamilton, Holmes, Lafayette, Liberty, Suwannee, Taylor and Washington. Holmes had the lowest rate at 28 percent, followed by Hamilton at 33 percent and Calhoun and Liberty at 34 percent. By contrast, Miami-Dade County had the highest rate at 83 percent. The report did not provide a county-by-county breakdown of people who were fully vaccinated. But it indicated that 10.3 million people statewide are fully vaccinated, while 2.1 million have received first doses. Vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna require two shots for people to be fully vaccinated.
