Brown Announces Latest COVID-19 Measurs

Businesses across Oregon will face tighter restrictions starting Friday under the latest guidelines issued by Governor Kate Brown to stop the spread of COVID-19.  Indoor venues such as restaurants, bars, gyms and houses of worship must limit occupancy to 100 people, down from 250, and restaurants and bars will have to close by 10 p.m. instead of midnight.  The governor also announced that children ages 5 and older must wear masks in public starting Friday, and that a watch list of counties seeing what state officials consider as worrisome levels of COVID-19 spread will be updated soon.  Brown acknowledged in a press conference that some people will think these measures are not enough, and others will think they are too much.  Brown did say the state is starting to allow outdoor visits to residents of long-term care facilities where there is no evidence of the virus.
