The Oregon Health Authority added some clarification Tuesday about new mask rules that were announced last week. As health officials announced last week, people who are fully vaccinated will no longer be required to wear a mask indoors, but officials clarified that only applies in situations where individuals’ vaccination status is checked.
Fully vaccinated people are still required to wear a mask in a number of places including; health care settings, schools, and on trains, planes, and public transportation.
The new details, included in the Oregon Health Authority’s interim guidance for fully vaccinated individuals, take effect today.

Today House Bill 3178 passed the Oregon Senate. It will provide immediate relief to workers and employers deeply impacted by COVID-19 and help get more Oregonians back to work without losing money.
“This is a common sense policy that will make a big difference,” says Val Hoyle, Oregon Labor Commissioner. “As Oregon’s economy continues to reopen, we must do everything we can to support workers and businesses. Oregonians are still juggling disrupted childcare, part-time school, financial challenges, and the continued risk of COVID-19 – everyone can’t simply go back to work as if it’s February 2020. Now, workers will have support to get back to work part time without losing money each week and businesses can slowly open up as it’s safe to do so.”
