They opened up to the general public last Tuesday, vaccinating anyone 18+ in the county. They expect 45% of their population to be vaccinated by the end of the week.

Gila County Emergency Management Director, Josh Beck, says they are currently speaking with other counties to figure out the logistics, including eligibility requirements.
