Oregon Among Blue States Slow to Lift Virus Restrictions By Sara Cline | May 24, 2021
The sand was packed on a recent sunny day at this upscale beach town on Oregon’s coast, but signs of the state’s cautious approach to the pandemic were still everywhere.

It was a sharp contrast to places such as Florida or Texas, where many COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted for weeks.
