OH, I KNOW CRAZY RIGHT .
HERE WE GO WITH THE RADAR.
WE'RE STILL FORECASTING MOST
OF PORTLAND'S RAIN TO BE THIS

EARLY BIT OF SHOWER ACTIVITY
THAT HAS MADE IT TO CHERRY

BATTLEGROUND SOME LIGHT RAIN
SHOWERS IN YOUR AREA RIGHT NOW.
OVERALL CLOUDS ARE THICKENING
COMING INTO THE VALLEY WHERE
FIFTY THREE HERE IN PORTLAND

SHOWERS AT TIMES THIS
AFTERNOON.
AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES LOW TO MID 60S
TODAY FOR HIGH.
>> ALL RIGHT .
SOUNDS GOOD, ROB.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. WELL, HAPPENING TODAY THE BIG
STORY BECAUSE OF RISING
CORONAVIRUS CASE RATES
AND HOSPITALIZED PATIENTS, 15
OREGON COUNTIES ARE GOING BACK
INTO THE EXTREME RISK LEVEL
AND THAT MEANS A LOT OF CHANGE
TO SO MANY BUSINESSES JUST AS
WE WERE INCHING TOWARDS FULL
REOPENING AND THAT IS CAUSING A
LOT OF PUSHBACK FROM POLITICAL
LEADERS KGW BRYANT CLERKLEY
JOINING US THIS MORNING FROM
NORTHEAST TWENTY FOURTH
AND GLEASON WHERE A LOT
OF RESTAURANTS AND SHOPS ARE
GOING TO HAVE TO ADJUST.
SO BRYANT, WHICH COUNTIES ARE
WE TALKING ABOUT?
GOOD MORNING NINA MULTNOMAH
CLACKAMAS IN 13 OTHER COUNTIES
WILL BE MOVING TO EXTREME RISK
TODAY AND THAT MEANS INDOOR
DINING AT PLACES LIKE THIS WILL
HAVE TO CLOSE.
BUT TO HELP RESTAURANTS IN THIS
PHASE, GOVERNOR BROWN DID
ANNOUNCE THAT OUTDOOR CAPACITY
LIMITS CAN GO FROM 50 TO 100
PEOPLE AS LONG AS HEALTH
AND SAFETY MEASURES ARE
FOLLOWED.
FOLLOWED.
FOLLOWED. AND WE SHOULD ALSO NOTE THAT
JIM'S INDOOR ENTERTAINMENT LIKE
THEATERS WILL ALSO HAVE TO
REDUCE CAPACITY EVEN MORE.
GOVERNOR BROWN SAYS IF WE DO
NOT ACT NOW HOSPITALS, DOCTORS,
NURSES AND OTHER HEALTH CARE
SYSTEMS WILL BE STRETCHED
AND MAY EXCEED CAPACITY EVEN
WITH 40 PERCENT OF OREGONIANS
FULLY OR PARTLY VACCINATED, THE
STATE STILL SEES INFECTION
RATES RISING.
RATES RISING. SO THE GOVERNOR HAS TAKEN THIS
ACTION BUT THERE HAS BEEN SOME
PUSHBACK FROM LOCAL COUNTY
LEADERS IN THE STATE THESE
START TO WORK WITH YOUR LOCAL
HEALTH AUTHORITIES ON
RECOVERY AND REOPENING HONESTLY
THE VULNERABLE OF DESCHUTES
COUNTY, CENTRAL OREGON HAVE
GOTTEN THEIR VACCINES VERY,
VERY HIGH PERCENTAGE.
IT'S TIME TO GO FORWARD.
WE DO NOT NEED TO GO BACKWARDS
AGAIN.
AGAIN.
AGAIN. OREGON STATE EPIDEMIOLOGIST
TOLD STATE LAWMAKERS ONLY ABOUT
THREE PERCENT OF CASES COME
DIRECTLY FROM RESTAURANTS
AND HE SAID MOST OF THE CASES
COME FROM PEOPLE IN CHILDREN
WHO ARE NOT VACCINATE COMING IN
CONTACT WITH THE VIRUS AND WE
WILL HEAR FROM GOVERNOR BROWN
IN A PRESS CONFERENCE THIS
MORNING AT 11:00 A.M. AND SHE'S
GOING TO UPDATE EVERYONE ON
OREGONS COVID-19 RESPONSE
AND WE WILL CARRY THAT PRESS
CONFERENCE ON KGW.
>> BACK TO YOU GUYS.
ALL RIGHT , BRIAN CLERKLEY LIVE
FOR US.
FOR US.
FOR US. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. SO HERE ARE WHERE THINGS STAND
IN WASHINGTON.
IN WASHINGTON. THEY USE PHASES INSTEAD OF RISK
LEVELS LIKE IN OREGON.
BUT ON MONDAY THE STATE WILL
DECIDE IF ANY OF THOSE PHASES
NEED TO BE ROLLED BACK SINCE
CASES ARE ALSO RISING.
SO BASED ON THIS MAP THAT COULD
HAPPEN IN A LOT COUNTIES
EVERYWHERE THAT'S RED MEANS
THEY HAVE TOO MANY COVID CASES
TO STAY IN THEIR CURRENT PHASE.
AND YOU CAN SEE THAT INCLUDES
CLERKLEY AND SKAMANIA COUNTY.
>> HERE'S A LOOK NOW AT THE UP
TO DATE VACCINATION NUMBERS IN
OREGON AND WASHINGTON.
SO LET'S START IN OREGON ONE
MORE THAN ONE POINT TWO MILLION
PEOPLE IN OREGON HAVE BEEN
FULLY VACCINATED AT THIS POINT.
THAT MEANS THEY'VE EITHER HAD
BOTH SHOTS THE MODERNA OR
PFIZER VACCINE OR THEY GOT THE
ONE SHOT
OF
OF THE
OF THE JOHNSON AND JOHNSON VACCINE AND ONE
POINT TWO MILLION REPRESENTS
ABOUT TWENTY EIGHT PERCENT
OF OREGONS POPULATION IN
WASHINGTON, THE PERCENTAGE JUST
TO TICK HIGHER ABOUT TWENTY
NINE PERCENT OF WASHINGTON'S
POPULATION IS FULLY VACCINATED
WHICH EQUALS ABOUT TWO POINT
TWO MILLION PEOPLE AND MORE
THAN THREE MILLION PEOPLE IN
WASHINGTON HAVE GOTTEN AT LEAST
THEIR FIRST SHOT.
WE'RE ALSO SEEING A LOT
OF OLDER, MORE VULNERABLE
PEOPLE GETTING VACCINATED HERE
OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS
BRENDA.
BRENDA.
BRENDA. AND THAT'S LED TO A SHIFT IN
WHO'S ACTUALLY GETTING INFECTED
WITH COVID YET CHILDREN 10
AND YOUNGER ARE NOW GETTING
COVID AT HIGHER RATES THAN
PEOPLE 70 AND ABOVE.
IN FACT, THE AMERICAN ACADEMY
OF PEDIATRICS REPORTS CHILDRE
AND MAKE UP 20 PERCENT OF ALL
NEW CASES.
NEW CASES. THE BIG DIFFERENCE IS KIDS
CAN'T GET THE COVID SHOT YET
THE RETURN TO IN-PERSON
LEARNING IS ALSO PLAYING A ROLE
WHILE THE OVERALL MAJORITY
OF CHILDREN WHO GET COVID WILL
SURVIVE.
SURVIVE.
SURVIVE. THERE IS STILL A RISK.
>> IT'S STILL A DANGEROUS
DISEASE FOR KIDS.
IT STILL IS TRANSMITTED BY KIDS
.
.
. WE
. WE STILL SEE LONG COVID IN KIDS
.
.
. >>
. >> WE
. >> WE SEE THE MULTISYSTEM
OREGON FAILURE PROBLEM IN KIDS
UNTIL NUMBERS ARE LOWER,
EXPERTS WARN AGAINST KIDS
SPENDING THE NIGHT TOGETHER OR
EATING IN A COMMUNAL SETTING
LIKE AN OVERNIGHT CAMP.
>> ALL RIGHT , LET'S GET YOU
SOME MORE OF YOUR MORNING
HEADLINES AND ANTI POLICE
PROTEST IN SOUTHEAST PORTLAND
