Coronavirus now in Oregon
...The person tested positive for coronavirus. The case needs to be confirmed by federal health officials. The patient is isolated at Kaiser Permanent Westside Medical Center. It is a case of community-spread disease. The person is a teacher at a Clackamas County school and may have exposed people there, health officials said, and had contact with people in Forest Hills Elementary School at Lake Oswego.
The state would not disclose their age, sex or specific condition.
Weve been expecting this and we are prepared for it, said Patrick Allen, director of the Oregon Health Authority.
The person first had symptoms Feb. 19, the agency said in a statement. A sample from them was collected and sent to a laboratory in Hillsboro, which used a test kit provided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Oregon officials need the CDC to confirm the test, Allen said should happen in a matter of days.
Now, the school district is shutting down the school where the teacher works so that health officials can do their investigation and talk to employees and let families known their children could have been exposed.
