DETROIT LAKE, Ore. – Oregonians are grieving the loss of some of their most treasured natural places after wildfires wiped out campgrounds, hot springs and wooded retreats that have been touchstones for generations in a state known for its unspoiled beauty.The flames that destroyed hundreds of homes and killed at least nine people also encroached on beloved state parks, scorched some of Oregon's best-known hiking trails and raged through a whitewater rafting mecca.“Nature IS the icon in Oregon.

Notes from the Field: Seroprevalence Estimates of SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Convenience Sample — Oregon, May 11–June 15, 2020

1; Paul Cieslak, MD1; Meghan Linder, MPH1 (View author affiliations)Views equals page views plus PDF downloadsThe first known case of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Oregon was diagnosed on February 28, 2020. Through May 31, a total of 4,243 COVID-19 cases in Oregon were confirmed by nucleic acid testing for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, yielding a cumulative COVID-19 incidence of approximately 0.1%.* Because this rate does not account for persons who were infected but did not seek testing (e.g., those with asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic infections), persons who chose not to be tested, or persons unable to access testing, the rate is believed to be lower than the true cumulative COVID-19 incidence in the state.
