Oregon health officials on Tuesday warned that severe winter weather in the state has impacted freezers containing COVID-19 vaccines. Health officials also noted that the severe weather will also likely impact vaccine shipments, delaying access to the coveted jabs. "We want you to know that vaccine shipments may be delayed due to severe weather here in Oregon and across the country. This slowdown and the effects of local winter weather may impact your access to vaccines," officials with the Oregon Health Authority said on Twitter. A harsh winter storm over the weekend left thousands of Oregonians without power, many of whom are still waiting for it to return.
