Klickitat County Not Yet Eligible For Phase 2 In Washington

Washington Governor Jay Inslee on Tuesday announced ten more counties were eligible to apply for Phase 2 in the state’s COVID-19 recovery strategy, but Klickitat County was not among them.  There are now 22 counties in the state either eligible to apply for or already in Phase 2, representing about 30 percent of Washington’s population.  Most of the ten made eligible for consideration today were in Western Washington. Inslee said a new piece of criteria has been added to be able to apply for the variance, requiring counties to have less than 10 new COVID-19 cases per 100,000 residents over a 14-day span.  Inslee said that meets Centers for Disease Control guidelines.  Skamania County is already in Phase 2.
