Wipes can clog pipes!

🦇Bats are crucial to our ecosystem—but they can also carry rabies🦇

During the summer, interactions with bats are more common. Clackamas County has already had one bat test positive for rabies this year. Fortunately, the bat didn’t have contact with a human but may have had contact with a cat.

Rabies is a deadly illness that can be prevented with treatment immediately after exposure. But of course, it’s better to prevent exposure in the first place!

Take the following steps to safeguard yourself, your family and your pets:

✅ Vaccinate your pets, including animals that are being fed on the property, like feral cats.
✅ Do not handle a live or dead bat. Call a professional wildlife removal service. A bat seen during daylight hours is likely ill and should be avoided.
✅ Use screens in open windows and doors.
✅ Seal openings to attics, basements, porches, sheds, barns and chimneys.
✅ Feed pets indoors.
✅ Keep garbage in secure containers away from wildlife.
✅ If your pet comes into contact with a bat, take it to a veterinarian.

If you are scratched or bitten by a bat, immediately wash the affected area with soap and running water for at least five minutes and seek medical attention.

Measles is spreading in our community! Measles starts with a cough, runny nose or red water eyes, followed by a high fever and a rash on the head or neck that spreads down the body.

If you think you have measles, get medical care. Measles symptoms can worsen over time and serious complications can occur.

If you have measles symptoms and/or think you might have been exposed to measles, tell the medical provider before you arrive so they can take precautions to protect staff and patients while ensuring you can be safely seen.

Anything that goes on the ground or down the drain can end up in your local waterways. Most pollution in our area comes from everyday activities that leave behind pollutants, which are then washed away by rain. These pollutants travel from our neighborhoods into streams and rivers. You can help keep our water clean and protect the places you care about.

What goes on the ground or down the drain ends up in your local waterways. The main source of pollution in our local waterways comes from our everyday activities, which leave pollutants behind and get picked up in storm runoff. Then they travel from our neighborhoods and get carried to our streams and waterways. There are many ways you can help keep our water clean and protect the waters you love.

Measles is spreading in our community! Measles can be very dangerous and even deadly, especially for babies and young children.

Up to one out of every five people who gets it will be hospitalized. One out of every 20 children with measles will get pneumonia, the most common cause of death from measles. One out of every 1,000 people with measles will develop brain swelling, which may lead to hearing loss and intellectual disability. For every 1,000 people with measles, one to three will die from it.

Thankfully, two doses of the MMR vaccine is about 97% effective in preventing measles! And getting vaccinated also protects the people around you who cannot get vaccinated, like young infants and some people who are immunocompromised.
