Deschutes County Reports 70 New Cases, Crook County 8, Jefferson County 1
PORTLAND, Ore. (KTVZ) – There are 22 new COVID-19-related deaths in Oregon, bringing the state’s death toll to 1904, the Oregon Health Authority reported on Tuesday.
OHA also reported 796 new confirmed and suspected COVID-19 cases as of midnight 01 Tuesday, bringing the state total to 139,355.
Vaccinations in Oregon
On Tuesday, the OHA reported that 17,422 new doses of COVID-19 vaccine had been added to the state’s immunization registry. Of that total, 10,178 doses were administered on Monday and 7,244 were administered the previous days, but were entered in the vaccine registry on Monday.
It may take several days for the cumulative daily totals to be finalized because providers have 72 hours to report doses administered and technical issues have caused many providers to be late in reporting. The OHA 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 now administered a cumulative total of 325,473 first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccines. All vaccinations were administered by hospitals in Oregon, long-term care facilities, emergency medical services (EMS) agencies, emergency care facilities, and local public health authorities (LPHA ).
To date, 589,200 doses of the vaccine have been delivered to sites across Oregon.
These data are preliminary and subject to change.
The Saint-Charles health system reported that 12,502 COVID-19 vaccinations had been administered at 4 a.m. on Tuesday.
The OHA dashboards provide regularly updated immunization data and the Oregon dashboard was updated on Tuesday.
COVID-19 hospitalizations
The number of hospital patients with COVID-19 in Oregon is 308, down 12 from Monday. There are 70 COVID-19 patients in intensive care unit (ICU) beds, five fewer than on Monday.
The total number of patients in hospital beds may fluctuate between reporting times. Figures do not reflect admissions per day or length of hospital stay. Staff limitations are not taken into account in this data and may further limit bed capacity.
