Oregon reports 48 deaths, 1,562 new coronavirus cases as vaccination campaign begins OregonLive.com 12/17/2020 Kale Williams, oregonlive.com
The Oregon Health Authority on Wednesday reported 1,562 new confirmed or presumptive coronavirus cases and 48 more deaths, the second-highest daily fatality count since the pandemic began.
The record, 54 deaths, was set Tuesday.
Officials said the back-to-back records in reported fatalities were the result of daily case counts that have remained stubbornly high and also, to a much lesser degree, the inclusion Wednesday of past deaths that are now considered COVID-related.
Some fatalities must be categorized by death certificates that need to be reviewed and confirmed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Wednesday’s tally included 11 deaths from May through October.
