Hospitalization Down In Puget Sound, But Eastern WA Is A Concern

SEATTLE — A mixed update from the Washington State Hospital Association (WSHA) this week: Hospitalization trends in King, Pierce and Snohomish counties are on the decline for the first time in weeks, but their progress may be negated by increasing hospitalizations in Eastern Washington.

According to the WSHA's briefing Tuesday, Washington's hospitals averaged 2,286 COVID-confirmed patients over the past week, a six percent increase from the week before.

"This is an improvement, though, from the last few weeks, when we saw much larger increases from week to week," said WSHA Executive Vice President Taya Briley.

Included in those counts were an average of 216 new hospitalizations each day. Washington also saw between 18 and 30 confirmed COVID-19 deaths each day last week.

Incidentally, the closer you get to Northern Idaho the more tRump signs you see.

With small blue-ish pockets embedded, which has the effect of helping to keep everything semi-sane and running well even over there.

Curiouser and curiouser...
