SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Utah residents 75 years and older are scheduled to receive the coronavirus vaccine in mid-February under a plan approved for the second phase of distribution.
The Utah Department of Health said in a news release Monday that other groups who could be in line to get the COVID-19 vaccine include people with underlying health conditions and those who live in group settings.
A person’s job is no longer under consideration.
The state has given the vaccine to 17,543 people as of Monday during the first phase that has focused on front-line health care workers with the highest risk of exposure.
