Oregon Health Authority (OHA) filed to make their ability to permanently mask Oregon school children at their whim, with no metrics and the OHA now has the permanent power to lift and replace the mandate as they see fit forever. https://www.opb.org/article/2022/02/02/oregon-health-authority-extends-masking-rule-in-schools/

OHA made the general mask mandate rule permanent today for all citizens at 12:29 pm. https://twitter.com/GenevieveReaume/status/1490802558905978881?s=20&t=Dt8EVptN8zjlfCmrVoZQ6g

After making the mask mandate permanent, quietly and without a press release, the OHA then announced that it would lift the mandate by March 31. But we should be careful because OHA now has the authority to mask all Oregonians at its whim, with no metrics, forever. https://www.oregonlive.com/coronavirus/2022/02/oregon-will-lift-mask-mandate-by-march-31-officials-say.html
