Oregon: January 18, 2021

We used to get confirmed cases in OR by using their positive people tested number and probably by subtracting that number from lumped. However, this number included people tested by antigen, it was never really confirmed. We are clearing the history of this field.

On January 27, 2021 we began removing negatives that were created from mixed units (specimens minus cases or test encounters minus cases) for states that are using explicit totals in our main total test results field (called totalTestResults in the API). Oregon never reported negatives directly, but did report in Total tests (people) until December 1, 2020. Removed time series from December 2, 2020 to present.

On October 9, 2020, Oregon announced they were removing the Recovered metric from their reporting. We carried over the last available value, as that was our policy at the time, however the value is out of date and potentially confusing. We will be keeping the time series as provided by the state, but removing the carried over values from October 9, 2020, forward.

On January 18, 2021, we accidentally caught the next days data for Oregon's Cases (confirmed + probable) and Deaths (confirmed + probable). Orgeon's data is on a one-day lag in our timeseries due to consistently updating after 7:30 pm est, when we publish our daily update. On January 18, 2021, they published data abnormally early and we mistakenly caught the data meant for January 19, 2021 in our data for January 18, 2021.
