Hood River County COVID Numbers Increasing

Hood River County Health Department Health Director Trish Elliott says the County had recorded 357 COVID-19 cases between January 1 and January 18, and it will likely be the heaviest month of cases for the pandemic.  Elliott told County Commissioners that number is probably higher with home testing that is taking place.  Elliott said Providence Hood River Memorial Hospital beds have been full at times, but added that number fluctuates daily.  County COVID-19 Coordinator Daron Ryan told the Commission they are still seeing high numbers turning out for vaccine clinics, especially on weekends.  She added the Federal Emergency Management Agency will return to the County to do mass vaccine clinics for two weeks in February and two weeks in March.
