There are currently 2,059 confirmed COVID-19 cases reported in Oregon of which 57 were reported this morning. Of that total, Union County remains at four cases and Wallowa County remains at 1. Union and Wallowa Counties have been fortunate that the total number of confirmed cases remain low. Local officials continue to be concerned about the growing number of cases in areas where Union and Wallowa county residents frequently travel, and urge caution and consideration against traveling to these areas. Travel to areas experiencing an outbreak will increase the risk of bringing additional cases of COVID-19 back to our counties. The data below is a summary of COVID-19 information provided by Oregon Emergency Management and Oregon Health Authority for the State of Oregon.
