Oregon reported a modest bump in coronavirus cases to end February, ending three consecutive weeks of significant declines.
The state recorded 2,652 confirmed or presumed infections for the week ending Sunday, Feb. 28, up 17% from the previous week.
But the earlier week’s case counts were extremely low amid a huge drop in testing during an ice and snowstorm, making meaningful comparisons challenging. The share of positive tests ticked up slightly last week, by two-tenths of a point to 3.7%, suggesting minimal change in spread.
The number of Oregonians admitted to the hospital with COVID-19 also stayed roughly the same week over week, rising from 159 to 164.
ZIP codes for Medford recorded the most new cases last week, while parts of Washington County in the metro area and Coos County on the coast also saw more confirmed or presumed infections.
