Another screenshot against a photo of evergreen needles dripping with rain. It shows a line graph of COVID-19 transmission in the last 3 months, plus a forecast. Transmission has been dropping in the last week, with a forecast to continue dropping through the start of March.

The last wastewater sample taken from Eugene was February 23rd, and was non-detectable. On February 24th, Corvallis and Salem were both positive.

Stay safe out there! We have masks, rapid tests, and air purifiers available for you, no questions asked always. :)

Two screenshots against a background of evergreen needles dripping with rain. The first is a map of the US showing COVID transmission, with states colored pale yellow to maroon depending on severity. Oregon is pale yellow, which means “Very Low”. Text warns that this data is based off February 14th. The second screenshot is text that reads, “63% of Oregon community wastewater treatment centers were positive for SARS-CoV-2 on the most recent sample.”

It’s Wastewater Wednesday! How are COVID levels? We’re using two sources to help us keep track of the country and our state of Oregon.

Meaning, you use the OHA page to see if COVID is notable in your particular city, and PMC can give you an estimate on how many people are actively sick!

Theoretically, 100% of cities could test positive for COVID, but case counts could still be low. Does that make sense? 🤔

It’s important to note that these stats are coming from two different sources who are tracking different things!

The map and graph from PMC attempt to track case levels using wastewater data, whereas the percentage from OHA tracks whether COVID is present in wastewater.

That “We Protect Us” on our banner carries a lot of weight when so many of our beloved community members are left to their own devices by our government and healthcare systems in times of illness, disability and crisis. Love you. ♥️ /end

As always, we encourage you to look at the world through an intersectional lens when taking precautions and doing research on airborne illness.

The December 2022 USA Household Pulse Survey showed that 46% of trans respondents reported experiencing long term COVID symptoms, and trans people also reported severe Long COVID symptoms at more than four times the rate of cisgender women and men.

According to HRC and PSB Research, we’re also more likely to face economic stress due to COVID, as we’re more likely to experience hour cuts and unemployment.

HRC’s research brief, “The Lives and Livelihoods of Many in the LGBTQ Community are at Risk Amidst COVID-19 Crisis”, many factors contribute to this including higher rates of conditions such as diabetes and asthma, and our lower likelihood to have insurance coverage.

Did you know that queer people, especially trans people, are at higher risk of being negatively impacted by COVID? 🧵

A mask bloc volunteer wearing a very cool all-black outfit with a matching black respirator gestures towards the Mask Bloc Eugene tabling booth.

We Keep Us Safe From Airborne Disease, Wildfire Smoke, and Pollen”. On top of the table is a spread of zines, rapid tests, and respirators. In the background is a large glass window looking into a room with wrestling mats on the floor and a few people warming up.
