Vaccines
46,374 vaccines were administered. “Administered doses” is the number of doses of vaccine that have been given to people and reported to UDOH. There will be an interval between when vaccines are sent, administered to a person and finally reported to UDOH. As soon as people in Utah start receiving their second dose of the vaccine, UDOH will also report the total number of people vaccinated. The data is preliminary and UDOH will report additional data as it becomes available.
