December 17, 2020 This post was updated Dec. 18 to include the most recent test results. The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office is committed to ensuring the health and safety of our workforce, adults in custody and those we serve. As COVID-19 continues to impact our community, the Sheriff’s Office was notified on Dec. 16, 2020, that an individual in-custody tested positive for COVID-19. Following the notification, the Sheriff’s Office, in coordination with Corrections Health, immediately acted by implementing pre-planned infectious disease protocols. These actions include: Quarantine and restricting movement in/out for all adults in custody in the housing unit and limiting access to the unit to only essential medical personnel.
