    Oregon Update:
    Check out the sections on Demographics and additional data.

    Oregon Health Authority | COVID-19 Updates

    Still 6 of 108 deaths are people under 60 and 0 under 40.
    Most are elderly with underlying conditions and a good percentage from senior nursing homes. And even with increased testing of late the positive rate in Oregon has remained under 5%.
    Hospital capacity is good and C19 activity in emergency departments remains very low as compared to other emergency room visits.

    We are ready for phase 2, but that's just my opinion.

    YES, it is official. Our neighborhood Starbucks is re-opening tomorrow for the first time since March 15th I believe. Only to go orders, but STILL. Some normalcy in my life.

    actually grinding some beans and making coffee at home is the normalcy....Starbucks is just an autograph for a cup of coffee...now will you drive there or walk? That's the test!

    I saw an article about those hornets. Fucking things can be 2 inches long. They rip the heads off of killer bees

    right next to the article was a link of videos of praying mantis killing hummingbirds, and a spider the size of a dinner plate dragging a possum into it's burrow. I'm now scared to mow the lawn tomorrow. What's worse, Covid or being attacked by a Murder Hornet?
