SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — All people in Utah age 18 and over will be eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine on April 1, the governor’s office announced Wednesday.

State officials expect to have 1.5 million doses by April 10, when Utah’s statewide mask order will be lifted, said Jennifer Napier-Pearce, spokeswoman for Gov. Spencer Cox. Mask orders will remain in place for schools and large gatherings.

The announcement came a day after Alaska became the first state to allow anyone 16 or older who lives or works in the state to get vaccinated.

New coronavirus cases and hospitalizations in Utah have been on a downward trend since January. More than 319,000 of the state’s 3.34 million residents have been fully vaccinated, according to state data.

More than 375,000 virus cases have been reported in Utah, along with 1,990 known deaths, according to state data.
