JACKSON COUNTY, Ore. Jackson County says it has enough vaccines to do next week’s 2nd vaccination clinic at the Expo.
But in a press conference today, Governor Kate Brown said next week’s plan to begin vaccinating seniors, could take much longer.
Oregon’s plan to begin vaccinating seniors 80 and older next Monday, is hitting a snag.
The state does not have as many vaccines as it had hoped.
“Next week, when seniors begin to be eligible, we will see some degree of chaos, next week many older adults will inevitably voice frustration, next week you will not have to look hard for to experience people experiencing confusion,” says Patrick Allen, Oregon Health Authority Director.
