Kitsap County's COVID-19 cases up 7.1%; Washington state cases holding steady
Washington state reported 110,379 new cases of coronavirus in the week ending Sunday, from 110,385 the week before of the virus that causes COVID-19.
Washington ranked 28th among the states where coronavirus was spreading the fastest on a per-person basis, a USA TODAY Network analysis of Johns Hopkins University data shows. In the latest week, coronavirus cases in the United States decreased 14.9% from the week before, with 4,770,122 cases reported. With 2.29% of the country's population, Washington had 2.31% of the country's cases in the last week. Across the country, 27 states had more cases in the latest week than they did in the week before.
Many counties did not report during data during the Martin Luther King Jr. weekend, disrupting the current and previous weeks' statistics. Week-to-week comparisons are skewed and these numbers will be unreliable even as they're accurate to what states reported.
Kitsap County reported 3,649 cases and four deaths in the latest week. A week earlier, it had reported 3,408 cases and zero deaths. Throughout the pandemic, it has reported 29,502 cases and 269 deaths.
