WELL, DESPITE PRESIDENT BIDEN'S
CALLS FOR ALL AMERICANS TO BE
ELIGIBLE FOR A COVID VACCINE BY
MAY 1ST, OREGON GOVERNOR KATE
BROWN IS NOT CHANGING THE
STATE'S TIMELINE FOR NOW SHE
SAYS IT'LL COME DOWN TO HAVING
ENOUGH VACCINE DOSES AVAILABLE
RIGHT NOW OREGON IS CURRENTLY
GETTING ABOUT ONE HUNDRED
TWENTY SIX THOUSAND DOSES A
WEEK.
WEEK.
WEEK. STATE HEALTH OFFICIALS ESTIMATE
THAT NUMBER WOULD HAVE TO JUMP
TO THREE OR FOUR HUNDRED
THOUSAND A WEEK IN APRIL TO
MEET THE PRESIDENT'S GOAL IF
THE DOSES >> ARE THERE.
I HAVE EVERY INTENTION
OF UTILIZING ALL AVAILABLE
STATE AND FEDERAL RESOURCES TO
MATCH THE PRESIDENT'S TIMELINE
FOR UNIVERSAL ELIGIBILITY.
AN EARLIER >> STATE SURVEY ALSO
PREDICTED OREGON COULD NOT
HANDLE MORE THAN ABOUT THREE
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOSES A WEEK.
SO IT'S QUESTIONABLE IF OREGON
COULD PULL OFF THE PRESINT'S
TIMELINE EVEN IF IT GOT THE
BIGGEST SUPPLY POSSIBLE
RIGHT NOW ALL OREGON ADULTS ARE
NOT SET TO BE VACCINE ELIGIBLE
UNTIL JULY 1ST.
A MASSIVE TELLIES SCOPE IS
MISSING TONIGHT.
MISSING TONIGHT. THE OWNERS SAY THIEVES NOT ONLY
TOOK THE SPECIAL EQUIPMENT BUT
ALSO OPPORTUNITY AWAY FROM KIDS
IN RURAL OREGON.
