  Immunizations   Oregon ranked 47th – near the bottom of the scale – in the CDC’s 2005 National Immunization Survey.  While improving slowly, Oregon’s rates remain unacceptably low. Counties with rates below 75% are encouraged to identify this significant health gap.  The State Immunization Program can assist counties choosing to address it.    Contact Martha Skiles 971-673-0304
