HUMPDAY NEWS ROUNDUP: New Risks, Old Risks, and Risky Beverages April 7, 2021 Correction: We said that Oracle created the Java programming language, however, it was created by Sun Microsystems. The Java code used by Google was written by Oracle. If we were up on our programming languages, we would repeat this correction in Java. Our apologies. The latest recap of the news you may have missed… we’re assuming by accident. New Risk Levels Announced Benton County still tops the list of Oregon counties in the High Risk category – primarily because the list is compiled alphabetically Joining us on the High list this time around are six counties which were considered Moderate – Clackamas, Deschutes, Klamath, Linn, Multnomah, and Tillamook – and two counties which were Extreme – Coos and Curry. Incidentally, Josephine, Klamath, and Tillamook counties qualified for Extreme risk, but the state as a whole hasn’t reached the trigger for Extreme yet. Basically, it’s all about metrics and percentages and large dartboards of the map of Oregon. The point is that Benton County has continued to do the right things to keep the course and be safe. Good job!
