The push to get Nevadans vaccinated against the COVID19 virus just got a calendar boost.

Governor Steve Sisolak announced on Wednesday, all Nevadans 16-years-old and older will be eligible to book appointments to get a vaccine starting on April 5.

Nevadans who are 16-years-old and older with underlying health conditions will be able to make appointments starting March 23. Those vaccinations will be available through the Retail Pharmacy Program.

President Biden had challenged individual states to open vaccinations to all residents by May 1.
