"The governor also recognizes that it can be difficult to resist the urge to get outside and visit Oregon's forests, beaches and other wide-open spaces, especially when we're spending far more time indoors than we're used to," she says. "Our most recent projections show that if we maintain our current social distancing measures through early May, we can slow transmissions significantly and help Oregon hospitals meet the demand for bed space and ventilators. The governor is asking for all Oregonians—despite the nice weather—to follow the spirit of the order."
