TILLAMOOK, Ore. —Today June 22nd, Tillamook County Community Health Centers are reporting a seventh case of COVID-19 in Tillamook County.
The individual is between the ages of 30-39 and is a resident of Tillamook County. Public health department staff is working with the individual who remains under self-isolation at home. Contact investigation is currently ongoing. Community members with health concerns can contact the Health Center’s COVID-19 nurse line at 503-842-3940.

COVID-19 is a highly infectious illness that spreads like the flu. Local and state health officials continue to urge all Oregonians to take steps to protect those who are most vulnerable to complications from COVID-19. Those considered “high risk” include adults 60 and older, or anyone with a serious health condition, including lung or heart problems, kidney disease, or diabetes, or anyone who has a suppressed immune system.
To help control the spread of the illness the public is urged to stay home as much as possible and avoid gatherings.
Every resident should take these basic steps to protect those most at risk:
– Cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze.
– Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
– Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands.
– Stay home if you feel ill.
