Klickitat County Sees Jump In COVID Cases This Week

Klickitat County has seen a dramatic increase in COVID-19 cases in the last week.  As of Friday, there have been 27 new cases since this past Sunday, bringing the total number of active cases in Klickitat County to 28.  Klickitat County Public Health Director Erinn Quinn says the County has not seen this many cases since late January, and it jeopardizes the ability for the County to stay in Phase 3 of the state’s reopening plan.  In order to stay in phase 3, Klickitat County will need to maintain a case count of less than 100 cases over a 14 day period and less than 3 hospitalizations in a 7 day period.  The next phase evaluation will be completed on May 3.  At this time, there are no known COVID-19 hospitalizations of Klickitat County residents.  Vaccinations are readily available for anyone 16 and older at a variety of locations within Klickitat County.  All vaccines are available by appointment only and can be booked by calling Skyline Health, Klickitat Valley Health, NorthShore Medical, or Klickitat County Health Department.
