OREGON -- Health care workers and those at long-term care facilities are first in line for COVID-19 vaccination, and many are wondering who’s next in Oregon?
That decision is up to state health officials.
The Oregon Health Authority said who they feel should be next in line: people over the age of 65, those with underlying health conditions and critical workers. This could include grocery store workers, emergency responders, teachers and others considered to be working on the front lines.
