Gov. Asa Hutchinson announced that the mask mandate is officially ending in Arkansas as of Tuesday while also opening up vaccinations to nearly all remaining adults in the state.
With active cases dropping and hospitalizations far below levels the state was seeing on March 1, the mask mandate is ending. Hutchinson is still asking that Arkansans still respect the decisions of businesses and venues in the state that are still requiring masks.

According to new CDC data on Arkansas vaccinations, there have been a total of 1,662,850 doses distributed since vaccinations began with 1,153,739 doses given a rate of 69.4 administered..
Currently, there are 769,106 Arkansans who have received only one dose, while 407,828 have received two doses.
（本州人口3,017,804，has recorded a total of 330,398 COVID-19 infections. There have been 4,484 deaths in the state among confirmed COVID-19 cases）
（我们州已经收到疫苗，有约三成没打下去。最大阻碍，在于大多数居民住在缺少医疗资源的乡间小村镇，实施难度大）
我们校长说：75% of our employees have received at least one dose.
去年底校内民调显示：近70%要打疫苗。
现在实打比例增加了，大概看到打了疫苗的好处，和没有啥危险。
人们的想法会随现实而改变。
另外，校长还说：Our mobile vaccine programs remain active with four to five vaccine events each week in communities across the state.
这个项目已经持续几个月了。
还有在当地开设的四个固定的疫苗诊所，为预约者服务。
