Jackson County came off the "watch list" of Oregon counties struggling with COVID-19 outbreaks, at about the time the September 8th fires hit.

Now people are wondering what effect fires and evacuations might have on the pandemic, and where things might turn as the weather gets colder.

Dr. Jim Shames is the Medical Director at Jackson County Health and Human Services.

He visits once a week to catch us up on COVID-19 issues and current concerns. Ask your question at 800-838-3760 or JX@jeffnet.org.
