Douglas County will remain at High Risk level for COVID-19 under updates announced by Governor Kate Brown on Tuesday.
Beginning Friday, Grant, Lincoln and Wasco counties will move to Moderate Risk, down from High Risk. 21 counties will remain in High Risk, 7 counties will be at Moderate Risk and 8 counties stay at Lower Risk.
An update said with Oregon no longer meeting the statewide hospitalization metrics for Extreme Risk, following this week, Oregon will return to a two-week cycle for risk level changes for counties that have not vaccinated at least 65 percent of their population. Following the announcement of county movements to Lower Risk based on reaching vaccination goals on May 18th, the next risk level changes will be announced on May 25th and will take effect on May 28th.
