    No way am I asking my cat to do my hair. Admittedly, though, hers looks good.

    In Oregon based on the increase of test the positives are still around 3.3% which is even lower than when they first started as they were only testing those with hardcore systems. The key will be how many hospital admissions and deaths too.

    According to the Oregon Health Authority, 365 people were tested at the Lighthouse Pentecostal Church over the weekend. Many results are still pending, and health officials expect the number to go up.

    ...

    OHA also said it cannot confirm if the church was holding services leading to the rise in cases or if officials like the governor will intervene.

    “I can’t speak specifically to the congregation. What I can say, in general, when we’ve received complaints or we’ve received concerns or we receive information, they do get referred to the appropriate entities," said Carrie Brogoitti, Union County public health administrator.

    OHA said, anecdotally, it does believe those 99 positive cases included many asymptomatic cases.

    If that church held services against the governor's orders they should be billed for the cost of the tests and fined.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    And their church should be burned to the ground, the land salted and their religion disbanded forevermore.

    But at least a fine.

    "A now-deleted video from the church’s Facebook page showed hundreds of worshipers singing, dancing, and jumping around during a service on May 24, when faith communities were not allowed to convene in large groups under Gov. Kate Brown’s reopening guidelines. The La Grande Observer reported the church recently held a wedding and a graduation ceremony that had over 100 people at each event.

    A person who answered the phone at the church ended the call when asked about the outbreak by The Oregonian/OregonLive Monday. No one has answered the phone Tuesday

    almost certain they were violating the guidelines. And we know why: they didn't believe the science or the advice of experts. They knew better because they were bathing in the power of god. Well, the virus doesn't believe in god but it does love new hosts, especially stupid ones

    Psssh... obviously these amateurs weren't praying hard enough! Shouldn't have skipped-out on the "Pocket Jesus" option in their SpishakTM "Heaven 2 Go" starter packages.

    "Life's tough... PRAY HARD!" When that fails!? PRAY HARDERRRRRRRR! I mean, duh!
