Schools are mostly online only. Counties having fewer than 100 cases per 100K over the last 14 days and less than 8% positivity can have hybrid learning for K-3. For 4-12 they have to have fewer than 50 cases per 100K over the last 14 days and less than 5% positive. Our schools in Eugene are staying remote until at least January.

Can you clarify your numbers?   "100 cases per thousand"   Is that over the last 9 months, or some sort of ongoing average?

Yes, thanks M T, my original was sloppy. I've corrected it on the original and in the quote here, so the error no longer shows. For others, I did have an error there, now corrected.

Political disaster. Very unwise.

You wouldn't know it's a political disaster if you were up here in Oregon. We just drove from Eugene out to Depoe Bay on the coast with family (staying with family in quarantine, BTW) Friday and then back to Eugene today. Oregon seems mostly settled in support of the governor's caution. Nobody anywhere without a mask, businesses all complying ... during the total of five hours driving back and forth, we did encounter one Trumpism parade of 10 pickups with flags, today, Sunday ... the rest of the traffic quietly ignoring them, passing in the left lane, and avoiding them. No sympathetic honking. Lots of rolling eyes. Local papers reporting the new shutdown without a lot of comment.
