Beginning today, all Massachusetts residents 16-years old and over are eligible to receive the coronavirus vaccine.
Today marks the beginning of the third and final phase of the state's vaccination program.
The change means an additional one-point-seven-million state residents are now eligible to receive the vaccine shot.
Governor Charlie Baker is warning the newly eligible group that it could be weeks before they will be able to find an appointment.
Meantime, in New Hampshire, that state has also lifted restrictions. Officials say you don't need to be a resident in order to be vaccinated there.
