Oregon will begin following a new framework of measures based on county-by-county risk levels. There are four levels of risk in this framework — Extreme, High, Moderate and Lower Risk — based on cases per 100,000 residents. There is no Zero Risk category. Here is a map of Oregon’s Risk Levels by county.

Klamath County is in the High-Risk category as of February 12, 2021.  You can find a list of all the metric-based guideline details here and what this means as far as what is open in Klamath County.
