(KNSI) – Minnesotans could soon get the news they’ve been waiting for since the start of the pandemic.
Governor Tim Walz is making plans to wind down COVID-19 restrictions and get Minnesota back to business as usual.
On Thursday, Governor Walz will announce a timeline to end all COVID-19 restrictions in Minnesota while doubling down on vaccination efforts.
Walz will announce his plan during a live address at noon. Walz has not given details but said Tuesday that “Minnesotans should start assuming that they’re going to have a very normal-looking summer.”
The governor and health officials announced earlier Wednesday that 2 million Minnesotans have now completed the vaccination process.
About 59% of the 16-and-over population has had at least one dose, and nearly 46% have completed the series.
