OREGON – According to the statement, the Moderna doses should have arrived Tuesday but, as of Wednesday, had not been shipped.
The officials have reported that i’s still unclear if shipments will be transported Thursday and arrive by Friday or later in the weekend.
The Oregon Health Authority announced that the nationwide cold front was expected to delay shipments of vaccine this week. But officials didn’t respond for more than 48 hours to questions about those delays, citing agency staff who have been without power in Oregon.
The delayed vaccines included first doses earmarked for 15,700 seniors, 5,200 educators and 5,400 people in phase 1a, such as health care workers, Oregonians with disabilities and others. Second doses for 37,700 Oregonians are also in that order.
