As of this morning, over 30% of adult Vermonters have received at least one dose. The most vulnerable, those 65 and older and anyone with certain health conditions, are eligible. Today, I am announcing the remaining schedule for when EVERY adult will be able to sign up. 1/

Might be 'false spring' in #btv, but still a window to do road work. We keep 40 tons of asphalt on hand during winter before asphalt plants open to patch potholes & fix roads. Tomorrow, we'll be on Briggs, south Battery & Sears Ln. Parking will be temporarily disallowed.

Burlington voters are getting their Town Meeting Day ballots in the mail, and the City has received a number of questions about the Charter Change on thermal energy systems. See this page with responses to FAQs: https://t.co/DKeI64TehM

[Governor Phil Scott @GovPhilScott]

Since 8:15 AM, almost 19,000 Vermonters in the Phase 3, 70-74 age-band have scheduled their COVID-19 vaccine. That's nearly 60% of the entire eligible population!

There are enough slots for everyone, so if you haven't signed up yet, there is still time. #OurShotVT

[BTV Public Works @BTVDPW]

RELEASE: A winter PARKING BAN will go into effect for most of Burlington tonight at 10pm. With icy conditions and more snow expected this week, crews will be working across the City to keep roads, sidewalks and bike lanes clear. Read more: https://t.co/smiIlxcUOt. #btv #vt

[Governor Phil Scott @GovPhilScott]

Thank you to the Vermonters in the 70+ age-band, and those helping them sign up. In less than 3 hours, we've already scheduled more than 10,000 people in this phase, nearly one-third of the entire group population. Keep it up!

[Governor Phil Scott @GovPhilScott]

Vermonters 70 and older are now eligible to be vaccinated. We expect to move through this phase quickly and will then open to 65+ and then those with certain health conditions that put them at greater risk if they get COVID-19. Protecting the vulnerable must be our top priority.

[Age Well @AgeWellVT]

Older Vermonters & their caregivers - We can help answer your questions surrounding the COVID-19 vaccine!

The City of Burlington’s testing of wastewater has detected the presence of two COVID-19 virus mutations that are associated w/ the B.1.1.7 variant. Detection of these 2 mutations is a strong indicator that the B.1.1.7 variant is present in the community. https://t.co/9kQVno9NHA

[BTVMayor @BTVMayor]

As we have anticipated would happen, the City has detected mutations associated with the Covid-19 variant that first originated in the U.K. This information serves as an alert for Burlingtonians to exercise extra caution. Learn more: https://t.co/SWhtK2NPVJ
