Anyway, in Marion County, 162,838 people or 46.6% of the populace is fully vaccinated and 51.2% of people are at least halfway there (as of Aug. 1).

For the Oregon Health Authority, getting at least one shot into 80% of eligible arms is the benchmark to reach—10% higher than what elected officials aimed for a month ago.
