Coronavirus in Oregon: Case growth slows to lowest level in seven weeks – OregonLive

Oregon reported just 4% more new coronavirus cases this week compared to the previous week, a dramatic slow-down after six consecutive weeks of case growth reaching as high as 50%.

But it’s unclear whether that means the current coronavirus mini-surge, or bump, is actually slowing down. More than 10% of COVID-19 tests have come back positive the last 10 days, a positivity rate high enough to indicate the virus is easily spreading in the community.
