Potential Exit-Date For Mask Wearing Set

An exit date for mask-wearing in the state of Utah has been tentatively set by the Utah Department of Health, according to reports from Fox 13 News.

Fox 13 reports that in an interview with their station, health department director Rich Saunders said that eight weeks after Utah distributes 1.6 million primary doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, counties in the low transmission index will be able to lift mandates. As of Tuesday, Fox 13 reports that the state is at about 440,000 first doses distributed.
