According to The Oregonian/OregonLive’s analysis, here are the 10 ZIP codes in Oregon with the highest percentage increase in reported coronavirus illness cases week over week, based on data released Tuesday by the Oregon Health Authority.
*97862 is in a tie with 97401, with the exact numbers and increase. 97862 is in the Milton-Freewater area of northeastern Oregon.
The state suppresses actual numbers for positive tests between 1-9 within a single ZIP code, for fear of identifying someone, so the Eugene area ZIP code could have had anywhere from one to nine cases last week and now reports 11.
Here is the updated Oregon cases by ZIP code map.
These ZIP codes are the largest increase by percentages. The largest numerical increase was in Woodburn. The ZIP code of 97071 covering Woodburn reported 19 additional residents infected since state officials released numbers a week ago.
