Weekly COVID Update: Cases and hospitalizations increase, deaths continue to drop


New positive cases and hospitalizations related to COVID-19 both increased over the past week in Oregon, while deaths related to the pandemic continue to fall, Oregon Health Authority data shows. There were no new deaths reported in Linn or Benton counties.
The increase corresponds with the higher transmission of SARS-CoV-2 variants that originated in other countries. The most common virus variant in the U.S. is the Delta variant, which first originated in India this year. In Oregon, the most common variant is the Alpha variant, which originated in the United Kingdom last year. However, new cases of the Delta variant have cropped up in the past week, particularly in Eastern Oregon, and the share of active COVID cases associated with the Delta variant is growing in Oregon. These variants are considered more infectious than other forms of the virus, though the vaccines remain effective at stopping the spread of all known variants.
