Washington County adapts to life under moderate risk March 02 2021
Restaurants, fitness centers and more are allowed to up their capacity this week as COVID-19 cases continue to fall.
The coronavirus picture keeps improving in Washington County, where businesses are now being allowed to relax health and safety protocols a little further still.
Gov. Kate Brown declared Washington County, as well as neighboring Clackamas County, to be at moderate risk of COVID-19 community spread as of Friday, Feb. 26.
The move down from high risk came just two weeks after the most stringent restrictions were rolled back, following about two months during which Washington County was considered to be at an extreme risk level.
