Vermont reaches 80% vaccination goal Eighty percent of eligible Vermonters have received a Covid-19 vaccine, clearing the way for the state to reopen, Gov. Phil Scott declared Monday.
The announcement effectively brings an end to the pandemic-related restrictions imposed in March 2020.
Starting immediately, there are no limits on the number of people who can congregate in restaurants, performance spaces or other indoor venues. Previously, gatherings were capped at 300 unvaccinated people, plus any number of vaccinated individuals.
