Oregon reports no new COVID-19 deaths, 292 new cases

PORTLAND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- There are no newly reported COVID-19 related deaths in Oregon, and the state’s death toll remains at 2,208, the Oregon Health Authority reported Sunday.

OHA also reported 292 new confirmed and presumptive cases of COVID-19 as of 12:01 a.m. Sunday, bringing the state total to 155,597.

Vaccinations in Oregon

OHA reported that 29,330 new doses of COVID-19 vaccinations were added Sunday to the state immunization registry. Of this total, 19,513 doses were administered on Saturday and 9,817 were administered on previous days but were entered into the vaccine registry on Saturday.

Cumulative daily totals can take several days to finalize because providers have 72 hours to report doses administered and technical challenges have caused many providers to lag in their reporting. OHA has been providing 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 973,022 first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccines. To date, 1,194,495 doses of vaccine have been delivered to sites across Oregon.

These data are preliminary and subject to change. OHA's dashboards provide regularly updated vaccination data, and Oregon’s dashboard has been updated Sunday.

COVID-19 hospitalizations

The number of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 across Oregon is 134, which is 14 fewer than Saturday. There are 26 COVID-19 patients in intensive care unit (ICU) beds, which is five fewer than Saturday.

The total number of patients in hospital beds may fluctuate between report times. The numbers do not reflect admissions per day, nor the length of hospital stay. Staffing limitations are not captured in this data and may further limit bed capacity.
