SALT LAKE CITY — Utah's number of COVID-19 cases increased by 358 on Tuesday, with two more deaths and 30,001 vaccinations reported, according to the Utah Department of Health.

The rolling seven-day average number of positive cases per day is now at 406, according to the health department.

About 64% of all intensive care unit beds in Utah are now occupied, including about 67% of ICU beds in the state's 16 referral beds, according to the health department.

Utah HB294, which is also known as the state's pandemic "endgame" bill, requires all state and local health orders related to COVID-19 to end on the day that Utah reaches the threshold in three key metrics: the state's 14-day case rate is less than 191 per 100,000 people, the seven-day average of COVID-19 intensive care unit usage is under 15%, and 1,633,000 prime doses of the COVID-19 vaccine have been allocated to Utah.

Health officials announced Tuesday that Utah will pause its administration of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine after federal regulators said six cases of blood clotting were reported in women who had received the vaccine.
