PORTLAND — There are zero new COVID-19 related deaths in Oregon, the state’s death toll remains at 2,137 the Oregon Health Authority reported at 12:01 a.m. Sunday.

Oregon Health Authority reported 254 new confirmed and presumptive cases of COVID-19 as of 12:01 a.m. Sunday bringing the state total to 150,281.

Vaccinations in Oregon

Sunday, OHA reported that 7,206 new doses of COVID-19 vaccinations were added to the state immunization registry. Of this total, 4,028 doses were administered on Feb.13 and 3,178 were administered on previous days but were entered into the vaccine registry on Feb. 13.

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 677,194 first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccines. To date, 885,250 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 today.
