Stay home, save lives

Today Governor Kate Brown released a new executive order that takes additional steps to ensure Oregonians stay home in order to slow the spread of COVID-19 and save lives.
You may have questions about what the details of this order mean for the businesses you go to or activities that you usually participate in. But in the simplest of terms, the order asks you to please stay home unless it’s absolutely necessary. In response to the Governor’s order, OHA director Patrick Allen stated:

We know what can happen if every Oregonian doesn’t do their part to slow the spread of COVID-19. We don’t have to do more than turn on our televisions or go on social media to see what’s happening in other parts of the world. We know that our hospitals will be overwhelmed. We know that vulnerable citizens will be particularly at risk to the most serious consequences of the virus.

We’re asking everyone to take these measures seriously. We can all do our part to protect the health of our communities. What you do today can save someone’s life.
