More Iowans are now eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine as the state opens up eligibility to the state’s entire adult population.

Starting Monday, April 5, all Iowans age 16 and up are eligible to receive the Pfizer vaccine and all Iowans 18 and up are eligible to receive the Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

Studies have started on younger teens and, if approved for emergency use, high school aged kids may become eligible by the time the next school year starts.
