Operative words

Clackamas County will join other counties in Oregon in taking a 'two-week pause' to fight COVID-19 starting Wednesday, Nov. 11.... Governor Kate Brown ordered the two-week pause in counties with a case rate above 200 per 100,000 people over a two-week period.... The governor included Clackamas County in the two-week pause because of this unfortunate trajectory in positive COVID-19 cases.... The two-week pause mandate includes: stopping visitations at long-term care facilities; reducing the number of patrons in restaurants and bars; reducing indoor group sizes to a maximum of six people; and asking businesses to require staff to work from home as much as possible. The governor will have these measures in place from Wednesday, Nov. 11 to Wednesday, Nov. 25.
