CORONAVIRUS LATEST: — NYSE requiring vaccinations for floor traders — US reports highest case increase of any country — Oregon requires masks inside as cases reach all-time high
In Oregon, masks will be required in indoor public places beginning on Friday, Gov. Kate Brown announced.
Over 2,300 COVID-19 cases were reported in the state on Tuesday -- the highest since the beginning of the pandemic, the governor said. Oregon's hospitalizations are also at a record high and intensive care units are about 90% filled, Brown said. Nearly 73% of adults in Oregon are vaccinated, but the delta variant"has changed everything," Brown said on Twitter.
"I know Oregonians are tired of wearing masks. I certainly am too. But every time someone wears a mask that’s one more unvaccinated kid we’re protecting. That mask could keep your best friend or loved one out of the hospital," she tweeted.
