Utah Gov. Gary Herbert has issued an executive order requiring everyone traveling into the state to register their travel plans with the state.
The order applies to all adults starting Friday morning, whether they arrive by air or by ground.
In a press release, the governor’s office says all visitors will get instructions on how to register via an automatic text message when they arrive in the state.
“Our goal is to trace potential cases of Covid-19 in inbound travelers,” Herbert said.
The state says they will share only general information they collect on travel, with no personally identifiable information released publicly.
