With the Johnson & Johnson vaccine back in use, the state of Vermont is back on track with its vaccination goals to allow the state to lift most COVID-19 restrictions by July 4. In our weekly health update, we hear more about this, plus new outdoor mask guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
