Out of an abundance of caution, Oregon Health Authority (OHA) has asked all of the state’s vaccine providers to immediately pause administering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, in accordance with the recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) this morning.
Six women ages 18 to 48 experienced a rare and severe blood clot known as Cerebral Venous Sinus Thombosis within one to three weeks of getting a Johnson & Johnson vaccination.
This appears to be extremely rare, with just six cases reported out of 6.8 million Johnson & Johnson vaccinations administered. This is the type of rare event that the national Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) can identify so that they can be investigated further.

Investigators have identified the skeletal human remains found in January in a wilderness area southeast of Molalla.
The human remains are those of Kenneth Lee Bell, born 1957, formerly of Contra Costa County, California.
He was identified from personal effects found with the body, and a DNA confirmation is currently underway.
Kenneth Bell's mother (now deceased) had reported her son missing in 1979, when he would have been 22 years old. He appears to have disappeared while traveling from the Bay Area to Washington State to visit family.
Bell worked in the timber industry in the late 1970s, and frequented the Portland area in that time period.

A lot of Virginians have expressed complications getting pre-registered online to get their vaccine which was a requirement. Now, FEMA's Norfolk site at Military Circle Mall where the old Macy's was located, no longer requires that pre-registration. You can register when you get there and get your vaccine all in one visit as long as there are doses available.
To avoid high wait times, the best time to go is between 10a - noon or 2p to 5p. FEMA's vaccination site will be open Monday - Sunday 9a - 7p for the next seven weeks.
To check eligibility pre-register, if you plan on going to a different location, head to the state's vaccination list here.

Born January 22, 1918 in Hell’s Kitchen, New York to Rebecca Sprintz and Harry Snellnikoff. Lee dreamed about living in the country and did so. Her marriage to the late Nathan H.

Nat Greenberg first came to Block Island in the 1950s, frequently staying with his family at “Gravels,” the rooming house now owned by the Hobe family. In the late 70s Walter Filkins, later married to Lee’s daughter Debbie, built the Greenberg home on Southwest Point Road. For more than 40 summers Lee was a daily fixture at the State Beach leading yoga/exercise class, holding court under her blue striped cabana, rain or shine, with her family, playing Scrabble with her tribe, Betty, Mania, Pearl, Martha, Jean, Bobbie, Teresa, Charlotte, Barbara and many others. Lee was a devoted participant at the Spring Street Gallery displaying her sculptures and hosting openings. She was an active member of The Sons and Daughters of Ruth.
