Hood River County Health Department Health Officer Dr. Christopher Van Tilburg says it appears the County will move from “high risk” to “moderate risk” when the state does it every two-week update effective Friday. State officials will make those announcements on Tuesday. In a Facebook video, Van Tilburg says the change in risk status is good news, but he adds people still need to take precautions against COVID-19. When the category change takes effect on Friday, in-person dining at restaurants and bars in Hood River County can resume at 50 percent capacity with a closing time of 11 p.m. Churches in Hood River County can operate at 50 percent capacity indoors, theaters, museums, and gyms can operate at 50 percent capacity, retail stores can operate at 75 percent capacity, and indoor social gatherings can have up to eight people with a recommended limit from up to two households.
