A lot of the replies are confirming this. How in the fuck is this okay?

Read more. It's not all of Florida but a few counties are. Appointments filled up in those counties in minutes.

They made a tender that the florida government deemed the best, so they won the bid.

Ticket buying site usually for concerts or big events. The major concern is those at risk are above a certain age range and most likely have no clue how to go about using a site like EventBrite. And the counties using this site have not made over the phone appointments available apparently.

Could be worse I guess. It could be Ticketmaster.

Unless Eventbrite is even worse, and if that's true, God help Florida.

Even if they know how to use (Im gonna bet a lot of people aged 70+ and up only know the basics at best), it isnt fair at all to pit them against millennials and zoomers who are way more familiar with how to work these kind of things. Its a life saving vaccine, not a front row Red Hot Chili Peppers concert ticket or a PS5 for fucks sake. This is stupid.

There's still people who think having electricity and internet are "luxury" items and thus they should be denied to others whenever it proves inconvenient.

So does this mean bots are going to buy up all the preorders of the vaccine in Florida?

Idk what would be a better solution, tbh. If it were some random in-house scheduling software, I'm not sure there would be much outrage.
