The OHA reported 435 new confirmed and presumed cases of COVID-19 at 12:01 am on Monday, bringing the state total to 138,587. This is the lowest daily case count reported since 424 cases were reported on October 28.
Vaccinations in Oregon
On Monday, OHA reported that 7,390 new doses of COVID-19 vaccinations were added to the state’s immunization registry. Of that total, 6,182 doses were administered on Sunday and 1,208 were administered in the previous days, but entered the vaccine record on Sunday.
Cumulative daily totals can take several days to complete because providers have 72 hours to report administered doses and technical challenges have caused many providers to delay reporting. OHA has provided technical support to vaccination sites to improve the timeliness of their data entry into the state’s ALERT Immunization Information System (IIS).
Oregon has administered a cumulative total of 308,051 first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccines. All vaccinations were administered by Oregon hospitals, long-term care facilities, emergency medical service agencies (EMS), urgent care facilities and Local Public Health Authorities (LPHAs).
To date, 492,450 doses of the vaccine have been delivered to locations across Oregon.
These data are preliminary and are subject to change. OHA panels provide regularly updated vaccination data and the Oregon panel was updated on Monday.
