Governor Doug Ducey and the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) announced earlier this week that registration at Arizona&rsquo;s state-operated COVID-19 vaccination sites, which administer the Pfizer vaccine, will be open to all Arizonans ages 16 or older beginning March 24.&nbsp; 
 
Per ADHS, they now release new appointment times each Friday at 11 a.m. for state-operated sites.&nbsp;

&bull;	Arizona State University&rsquo;s Phoenix Municipal Stadium in Phoenix

People 16 and older will also be eligible to schedule appointments at pharmacies and federally qualified health centers that are participating in the federal vaccination programs.
