OR Begins Receiving Purchased COVID Tests

(Portland, OR) -- Oregon has started receiving the six-million rapid COVID-19 test kits it purchased, but most Oregonians won't get them. Oregon Health Authority Director Patrick Allen says they'll go to hospitals and clinics around the state that help under served communities. All six-million test kits will arrive in the state by the end of January. Allen says if you can't get a test, but think you have COVID-19 you should isolate for five days and then wear a mask for five days.
