PORTLAND, Ore. (KTVZ) — There is one new COVID-19 related death in Oregon, raising the state’s death toll at 2,782, the Oregon Health Authority reported Tuesday.

OHA also reported 463 new confirmed and presumptive cases of COVID-19 over the holiday weekend, as of 12:01 a.m. Tuesday bringing the state total to 209,494. Oregon reported 85 new confirmed and presumptive COVID-19 cases on July 5, 66 new confirmed and presumptive cases on July 4, 123 new confirmed and presumptive cases on July 3 and 189 new confirmed and presumptive cases on July 2.

Vaccinations in Oregon

OHA reported Tuesday that 1,707 new doses of COVID-19 vaccinations were added to the state immunization registry. Of this total, 1,233 doses were administered on Monday and 474 were administered on previous days but were entered into the vaccine registry on Monday.

The seven-day running average is now 5,746 doses per day.

Oregon has now administered 2,553,609 first and second doses of Pfizer, 1,748,032 first and second doses of Moderna and 171,120 single doses of Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines.

As of Tuesday, 2,413,181 people have had at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and 2,205,984 people have completed a COVID-19 vaccine series.

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).

To date, 2,964,195 doses of Pfizer, 2,240,820 doses of Moderna and 299,100 doses of Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines have been delivered to sites across Oregon.

These data are preliminary and subject to change.

Updated vaccination data are provided on Oregon’s COVID-19 data dashboards and have been updated Tuesday.

COVID-19 hospitalizations

The number of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 across Oregon is 125, which is 15 fewer than Monday. There are 29 COVID-19 patients in intensive care unit (ICU) beds, which is one more than Monday.

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.

St. Charles Bend reported 13 COVID-19 patients as of early Tuesday, three of whom were in the ICU, all on ventilators.
