HELENA —At a news conference, Governor Greg Gianforte announced that COVID-19 vaccines will be available to all Montanans beginning April 1, 2021.
“A few months ago, projections estimated Montanans 16 and older would be eligible for the vaccine as late as mid-July. I’m pleased to announce that we’re moving up that timeline. All Montanans 16 and older will be eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine on April 1st,” Gianforte said. He encouraged Montanans to get a vaccine.
“I look forward to getting the vaccine when my name is called, and I encourage all Montanans to consider doing the same. Getting one of these safe, effective vaccines will protect you, your loved ones, and your neighbors from this virus. It will help us get back to a more normal life ... We took a strictly data-driven approach to protect the most vulnerable, and it’s saving lives,” Gianforte said.
