Gov. Ralph Northam said at a news conference Tuesday that he was optimistic about COVID-19 case numbers and the rate at which residents are being vaccinated. Nearly 1 in 4 Virginians has now received at least one dose of a vaccine. he said.

Only people in eligible groups are currently eligible to receive a vaccine. But that is likely to change soon, Northam said.

“I expect it’s a matter of weeks before we can open it up to anyone who wants to be vaccinated,” he said.

Virginia will make “limited and targeted changes” to COVID-19 restrictions starting Thursday, April 1.

As many as 50 people will be allowed at indoor social gatherings, and 100 people outdoors.
