Just over 400 Oregonians are hospitalized with the virus Friday.

Statewide, there are 62 available adult ICU beds.

OHA Resolves Test Issue

The Oregon Health Authority says it has figured why the state’s percentage of positive COVID-19 tests was so high on Tuesday.

The OHA says due to server issues, almost 3,100 tests were automatically mislabeled and counted as positive.

And that’s how the state had a 14 percent positivity rate.

Those test results have now been fixed.

The state’s positivity rate that day was actually 6 percent.
