Yamhill County Public Health released a press release Thursday afternoon stating that 11 recent COVID deaths are tied to an outbreak at Majorie House Memory Care Community in McMinnville; and 35 more people there have tested positive. Our hearts go out to everyone involved in this incredibly sad situation we find ourselves in, said Health and Human Services Director Lindsey Manfrin.
