Three Washington Counties Move Backwards In COVID-19 Reopening | News Radio 1190 KEX

Apr 13, 2021
Washington Governor Jay Inslee today announced the rollback of three counties not meeting the Phase 3 Healthy Washington metrics for reopening activities.
The three counties returning to Phase 2 are:
• Cowlitz County
• Whitman County
“These metric trends are driven by the virus and we must continue to do everything we can to sharpen our focus and keep COVID-19 activity down. We are so close to the end of the tunnel here — we have made tremendous progress and we must keep our focus,” Inslee said. “It’s like a football game; we have done 95 yards on a 99 yard-drive. We can’t let up now. These are not punitive actions; they are to save lives and protect public health.”

Oregon Humane Society (OHS) has announced a groundbreaking to improve the lives of vulnerable animals and further support under-resourced pet owners in Oregon.

The New Road Ahead is the most ambitious expansion of OHS programs and services in its 153-year history.
The New Road Ahead includes the construction of two new buildings next to OHS’s Ernest C. Swigert Animal Shelter. The facilities will house a Behavior Rehabilitation and Rescue Center, Animal Crimes Forensic Center, and a Community Teaching Hospital. The project is scheduled to break ground in June 2021 and be completed by July 2022. The fundraising goal for the New Road Ahead is $36 million. More information about how to contribute to the project can be found at oregonhumane.org/newroadahead.

Pamplin Media Group - Vaccine rodeo - how OHSU and Port of Portland created a vast inoculation machine

April 03 2021
More than 5,000 cars per day, served by an army of volunteers, has led to more than 85,000 shots.
It's as if the people who built Disneyland reimagined a MAS*H unit.
The choreographed craziness of an average day at the mass vaccination site at Portland International Airport is a staggering amalgam of nearly 500 volunteers per day on 22 square acres of the airport's Red Lot, taking in around 5,200 cars filled with people wanting to receive their first or second shot of the anti-coronavirus vaccine. It's 400 orange traffic cones and massive circus tents and the constant roar of incoming aircraft, not that far overhead. It's the military precision of professionals and volunteers — many of whom wear goofy hats or wave pompoms — and, as of last Friday, the Herculean effort has put more than 85,000 doses of vaccine into the arms of Oregonians anxious for a glimpse of the light at the end of the COVID-19 tunnel.
