Would be interesting to see Oregon’s stats...radio here in Oregon brags about near 80% vax rate (one vax).
According to the CDC, 73.2% of Oregon's population age 12 and older has been fully vaccinated. For those age 65 and older, the figure is 88%.
In August 2020 (at which time, no one in Oregon had been vaccinated), there were 131 deaths involving COVID. In August 2021, there were 576 COVID deaths. In September 2020, Oregon incurred 86 COVID deaths. In September 2021, the state incurred 888 COVID deaths. In October 2020, Oregon suffered 132 COVID deaths. In October 2021 (with the data not yet complete), there have been reported 452 COVID deaths. The 888 COVID deaths Oregon incurred in September 2021 was the state's highest monthly total since the pandemic began.
The 147% "expected death" (all cause mortality) figure that Oregon experienced in September 2021 was the highest the state has seen since the pandemic began. The 138% "expected death" figure for August 2021 was the second highest.
Oregon had a big spike in cases in August and September, higher than anytime in 2020. Cases have dropped significantly in the past five or six weeks, but deaths are still high - in fact, higher than anytime in the pandemic on a couple of days in the last week or so.
