Open Daily 10-6pm OHA releases weekly testing summary for Sept. 6-12 OHA’s most recent Week- ly Testing Summary showed that as of Sept. 12, Oregon’s cumulative positivity rate is 4.6 percent of people tested. This is considerably low- er than the national average of 8 percent. Of the 17,365 test results reported so far for the week of Sept. 6-12, 965 — or 5.6 percent — were positive. The total for that week is likely to rise as test results State unemployment drops to 7.7 percent Oregon’s unemployment rate dropped to 7.7 percent in August from 10.4 percent in July. The unemployment rate was more than double last year’s rate of 3.6 percent in August 2019. Meanwhile, the U.S. un- employment rate dropped to 8.4 percent in August from 10.2 percent in July. Oregon’s total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 11,300 jobs in August, following a revised gain of 17,700 jobs in July. O v e r- t h e - m o nt h j o b gains in August were larg- est in leisure and hospitality (+4,200 jobs); retail trade (+3,300); construction (+3,200); and government (+3,000). Two industries cut a substantial number of jobs in August: whole- sale trade (-1,400 jobs) and health care and social assis- tance (-1,400).
