Governor says she will do everything I can to make it happen as state hopes to get more doses.
Oregon would need up to double the doses of COVID-19 vaccine it receives to fulfill President Joe Biden s seven-week sprint to allow all adults to be offered inoculation, Oregon health officials said Friday, March 12.
Gov. Kate Brown and top state medical experts held a press call to say they hoped to meet Biden s timeline, but would move cautiously. Brown said she welcomed Biden s audacious announcement. I will do everything I can to make it happen, Brown said.
Oregon s current staggered priority groups wouldn t match Biden s deadline until July 1. States have the central authority over public health and Brown said the present plan would stay in place until there was a guaranteed supply before she would unleash additional demand onto the already strained system.
