The state health officer cautioned that confirmed cases will continue to grow before coming back down.
PORTLAND, OR - MARCH 31: All parks off of the Historic Columbia River Highway are closed during the coronavirus pandemic on March 31, 2020 in Portland, Oregon. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, the state of Oregon, the city of Portland and surrounding counties have all announced stay-at-home orders , which strongly discourage residents from leaving home unless absolutely necessary or essential.
Dean Sidelinger, the state's health officer, told reporters Thursday that modeling compiled by the Institute for Disease Modeling in Bellevue, Washington"shows social distancing and stay-at-home orders in Oregon have cut transmission of infections by 50 to 70 percent,""The cases will rise slowly and rise slow enough that our hospital systems should be able to care for the people who get who sick should be able to provide the critical care for those who are most sick,"...
Oregon has 826 confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus in the states and 21 deaths, the Oregon Health Authoritystates. They have thus far tested 16,805 people, meaning 95 percent of those tested have been negative for the virus. Sidelinger said that the trend depends on everyone following Oregon Governor Kate Brown's stay at home orders.
