oregon coronavirus update july 13th 2020 : 280 new cases, 3 deaths
highest cases: Multnomah (82), Washington (47), Marion (36)

they restricted gatherings to 10 people because we cannot keep the corona under control. facemasks are required outside in public if cannot maintain 6 feet of space between groups.

If you look at other states like Florida and Texas I would say Oregon has done a good job keeping it under control.

People are goimg to be pissed here if Kate Brown shuts everything down again in a few weeks.

oregon coronavirus update 409 new cases

cant post rest my hand is sprained

High is partially due to a transition to a new reporting system, which prevented the processing of positive cases of a few cases for a few hours Thursday.

So blame Thursday for cases being so high today.

They do not care. I have been pleading with them to do something about his reckless behavior over the past 4 months to no avail, and now I get to pay the price for the inaction of the people around me.

They also knew of his illness and didn't tell me.

So they don't care if they get sick? Such lovely parents you have.

here's yesterdays numbers for oregon: 168 new cases. 0 deaths
highest numbers: Multnomah (41), Washington (34), Wasco (30)
they're blaming it on large gatherings, also to note 3 have the corona in this county including 1 in my town (parks director who works at the pool).

I think most states would kill for numbers like this. The media and governor freaked out last week when we had 4 straight days of 300+.

it's getting bad: 375 cases in oregon. 1 death

highest case numbers: Umatilla (88), Washington (67), Multnomah (64)
some people aren't learning to keep others safe from the virus :(.

even if all it means is to use a face mask then again that borders on freedom supposedly.

I wouldn't call that bad. What's going on in Florida, Texas and Arizona is bad. And how does Umatilla county have so many cases? Not many people live over there.

Oregons governor announced a statewide face covering for indoor locations. Originally it was just for the Portland metra area.

Cases last week were 200+,plus, 146 today. She's just looking for an excuse to shut down the state again.

I seriously need to get back to the gym. There's an LA fitness by my house that I used to have a membership for. I'm tempted to go back but worried about what might be dwelling in it. That and do I have to wear a mask while working out since it's indoors?

oregon daily count of infections:

250 infected. 5 dead
highest cases: multnomah (61), washington (39), umatilla (22)

And the Oregon health authority relewsed new models today regarding the virus. One is a pessimistic scenario that suggests cases could top 5000 a day within a few weeks. A moderate scenario which suggests 900 cases a day in mid July and then a optimistic s Amarion which they claim is less likely.

Imteresting that they release these models a week before the 4th of July. Sounds like a scare tactic to me.

Multnomah county finally approved for stage 1 starting Friday! Small hiccup is starting Wednesday face masks are required indoors.

I can finally get a haircut and go to the gym!

Tbh, I think we are completely fucked. I don't think we will be able to make an effective vaccine for it. Society in poorer countries will start to collapse first. Looting and violence will start. Eventually richer countries will start to collapse as well.

I've been following this virus since mid January and have been saying then that I think this going to get really bad. I really hope I'm just being a doomer but my gut feeling hasn't been wrong about this so far.

Will you please shut the f*** up. I remember back in February people were saying the national guard was going to be called in and Trump would declare martial law. I also saw a bunch of other people here spewing a bunch of s*** about things that never occurred.

Do you sit in your parents basement all day coming up with all this s***? Stop being a fear monger, get out of the basement and go outside and get some fresh air.,Amd don't forget your mask and hazmat suit.

iGarbage posts like his the reason I barely come over here Anymore. I bought into all the garbage when this virus started and got me scared.

A few months later and I'm over this virus. Nobody I know has gotten it and that's just fine with me. I think some of you spend way to much time on here.

Oregon has increased testing so we're getting bigger numbers. 174 yesterday was the most since the pandemic begin.

So our poor excuse for a governor Kate Brown (Oregon) put my counties application for stage 1 on hold for another week. All counties in Oregon are also on hold for a week as well.

Meanwhile, the county across the river in Washington is moving to stage 2 tomorrow. I'm frustrated and so over this s***.

A good chunk of Oregon opens tomorrow (stage 1) except for the 3 counties around Portland and Marion county.

I expect the Portland area to be opened by this time next month. Sadly public pools will not be opening this summer. So this means when we get a heatwave (it can reach 100 here) everyone will flock to either the coast or the rivers.

People here think if the weather is warm then so are the rivers. WRONG! The rivers here get a lot of snow melt from the cascades so they're cold. Lots of drownings here every summer.

hopefully oregon doesn't have the same thing happen :( when they reopen soon.

State parks (and maybe beaches) won't be reopening in Oregon until after Memorial Day. Washington will be opening their parks soon so there may be issues if Oregonians flock across the border.

Trump really thinks the west coast states could open by May 1st? Umm, not going to happen. California and Washington are nowhere near ready to open.

Oregon MIGHT be ready to open some stuff by then since cases seem to be dropping but Kate Brown will have to decide on that.

edit: seems oregon is closing down all schools for the rest of the year due to corona. seniors with passing grades will graduate. no word yet on a graduation celebration (depends how the outbreak continues).

She also extended the ban on eating in restaurants. 4th of July fireworks in Vancouver has been cancelled as wel.

Oregon with 1,239 cases and 38 deaths and scheduled to peak by the 21st. Not as bad as they first projected. Only thing that can screw it up is warm weather and that's what we have the next couple of days.

My friend who woke up yesterday to a sore throat and supposed pink eye now has an irritated eye, sore throat, some chills but no fever.

He had a telehealth appointment today and dr didnt seem to concerned because of no fever. Gave antibiotics for eye and other stuff.

So Im guessing he has the flu?

Washington gives away ventilators despite the fact cases have been increasing. Jay Insley is dumb.

Wife scared me this morning when I woke up and telling me she didnt feel great. No fever or anything.

A little stuffy and exhausted. Shes the only CA (claims assistant) at her office, everyone else is working from home. Shes been working her ass off the last two weeks and barely takes a break.

She lives only 5 minutes from her office so thats the reason shes going in. .

Oh, and Oregon is sending 150 ventilators rto NY. Guess we dont need them.

Oregon will peek in 2 weeks but it doesnt look like its going to be as bad as they 1st thought.

An employees at an amazon warehouse in the Portland area tested positive today. Those that had close contact with the person have been notified and will have to self quarantine for 2 weeks but will get paid.

Sister n law works there but not sure if she was one of the people notified. I sent her a story a few days ago about other Amazon warehouses having the same issue but she brushed it off.

I keep flirting with the idea of applying at Amazon but then s*** like this happens.

Oh, 48 new cases (735 in total and down from 98 new cases yesterday) and 1 death reported in Oregon today. We're not getting it as bad as Washington. Social distancing seems to be working.
