Vaccinations
46 374 vaccines were administered. ‘Dose administered’ is the number of vaccine doses given to humans and reported to the UDOH. There will be a delay between the transport of vaccines, administration to a person and eventually being reported to the UDOH. Once people in Utah start getting their second dose of vaccine, the UDOH will also report the total number of people vaccinated. Data is preliminary and the UDOH will report additional data as it becomes available.
