Vaccinations in Oregon

Saturday, OHA reported that 54,790 new doses of COVID-19 vaccinations were added to the state immunization registry. Of this total, 30,068 doses were administered on April 9 and 24,722 were administered on previous days but were entered into the vaccine registry on April 9.

The 7-day running average is now 37,239 doses per day.

Oregon has now administered a total of 1,139,331 doses of Pfizer, 1,012,176 doses of Moderna and 72,833 doses of Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines.

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 today.
