Near the end of last year, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis revealed a plan to distribute the COVID-19 vaccine statewide using partnerships between the state, the federal government, hospitals— and, apparently, Eventbrite.

Yes, a platform best known for selling and distributing concert, party, and meetup tickets is now being used to distribute COVID-19 vaccines to some of the most vulnerable people in society. It is not going particularly well. People who want to get a vaccine are sitting on Eventbrite’s pages waiting for vaccine slots to become available, refreshing the page, and trying to get a spot as though it were a Playstation 5 or a hot concert ticket.
