As of Wednesday, July 15, Oregon is banning indoor social gatherings of more than 10 people and will now require everyone to wear face coverings outdoors, when they cannot maintain a six-foot distance. The order by Governor Kate Brown; however, does not apply to houses of worship and businesses. The order follows a spike in the number of COVID-19 cases in Oregon, and a projection by health officials that cases could triple over the next six weeks.
