SHOTS! @SaltLakeHealth hosted a "pop up" #COVID19 vaccine clinic today at @malihehclinic. People were able to drive up and get jabbed! @fox13 #utpol #Utah Woman gets a COVID shot
These are the kinds of mobile clinics that @GovCox was talking about in the state's change in approach. @SaltLakeHealth has done a few already.

People who got their shots today tell me it's MUCH easier than trying to make an appt at a mass vaccine site. #utpol #Utah #COVID19 Man with a vaccine bandaid
The people I talked to aren't vaccine hesitant. But their work schedules don't make it easy to go get inoculated. These kind of "pop up" clinics put on by @SaltLakeHealth do. @malihehclinic is going to do them 2x a month for their clients. @fox13 #utpol #Utah #COVID19
.@DeidreHenderson told me these types of clinics are absolutely needed and why the state is changing focus to reach herd immunity with the #COVID19 vaccine.

The state will go to businesses/community groups for free to host mobile clinics. @fox13 #utpol #Utah Getting video of the jab.
FYI, @SaltLakeHealth right now is working directly with community orgs on pop up clinics. They may soon do random "hey, you have an arm let me stick a needle in it!" clinics.

Stay tuned. Next week WALK-INs start at Mtn. America Expo from 10-2. @fox13 #utpol #Utah #COVID19

Delegates are filling the Maverik Center for the @UtahGOP convention. Public health orders say gatherings of 50+ must wear masks but it’s very mixed today. @fox13 #utpol #Utah Image

From @fox13 @ 5: "Slowly we’re starting to re-open the Navajo Nation," @NNPrezNez says as #COVID19 vaccines climb and cases drop. My interview with him: fox13now.com/news/coronavir… #utpol #Utah
.@NNPrezNez had some good news to report. Of the about 260k people in/around the Navajo Nation? 50% are fully vaccinated now.

Within the boundaries? It's 70%. He's set a goal of 75% before they lift a lot of restrictions: fox13now.com/news/coronavir… @fox13 #utpol #Utah #COVID19
For now, @NNPrezNez says the Navajo Nation will keep its borders closed to visitors (including the stunning Monument Valley).

"We’re in a soft re-opening. We’re focusing on our Navajo citizens," he says: fox13now.com/news/coronavir… @fox13 #utpol #Utah #COVID19

NEW: The Utah Supreme Court has tossed a case that challenged the state parole board's absolute power: fox13now.com/news/local-new… @fox13 #utpol #Utah
Bobbie Widdison did time for the 1996 murder of her child. She was supposed to be paroled in 2018. Parole board changed its mind, giving her life. Widdison challenged it and as the case reached the Utah Supreme Court?

Surprise! She was paroled: fox13now.com/news/local-new… @fox13
The Utah Supreme Court tossed the case because Widdison technically got what she wanted (which was out of prison).

But she wanted the Court to consider the reach of the parole board's powers.

They declined: fox13now.com/news/local-new… @fox13 #utpol #Utah

This was such a fun story to do. @UtahDNR and @UtahStateParks had us down to check out the site, about 15 miles outside of Moab in the Dalton-Wells area: fox13now.com/news/local-new… @fox13 #utpol #Utah Mountains in backdrop, lots of open land.UtahDNR looking at a map of the boundaries.
The new Utahraptor State Park is the site of MASSIVE dinosaur fossils.

They found a thing called "the megablock" there. Check it out. These are Utahraptor teeth and claws! fox13now.com/news/local-new… @fox13 #utpol #Utah Dinosaur teeth embedded in rockDinosaur claw embedded in rock.
