MGN

PORTLAND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- There are four new COVID-19 related deaths in Oregon, raising the state’s death toll to 2,622, the Oregon Health Authority reported Sunday.

OHA also reported 334 new confirmed and presumptive cases of COVID-19 as of 12:01 a.m. Sunday, bringing the state total to 198,689.

Vaccinations in Oregon

OHA reported Sunday that 29,464 new doses of COVID-19 vaccinations were added to the state immunization registry. Of this total, 17,564 doses were administered on Saturday and 11,900 were administered on previous days but were entered into the vaccine registry on Saturday.

As of Sunday, 1,726,292 people have completed a COVID-19 vaccine series. There are 2,164,594 who have had at least one dose.

The seven-day running average is now 31,010 doses per day.

Oregon has now administered a total of 3,765,116 million vaccine doses, which includes 2,092,218 first and second doses of Pfizer,1,538,260 first and second doses of Moderna 132,924 single doses of Johnson & Johnson (1,714 doses were administered but vaccine product information was not specified).

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).

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 248, which is 10 fewer than Saturday. There are 71 COVID-19 patients in intensive care unit (ICU) beds, which is three fewer than Saturday.

The total number of COVID-19 positive patient bed-days in the most recent seven days is 2,071, which is an 12.8% increase from the previous seven days. The peak daily number of beds occupied by COVID-19 positive patients in the most recent seven days is 342.

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.
