Klickitat & Skamania Counties Stay In Washington Phase 1

Klickitat and Skamania counties will be in phase 1 of Washington’s Roadmap to Recovery plan for at least two more weeks after the region they are in fell short of metrics to move up in three of four categories, and that has some local officials frustrated.  Klickitat County Public Health Director Erinn Quinn says some of the statistics used were dated, and she remains concerned about her county being attached to Clark, Cowlitz, and Wahkiakum counties.  The region has gotten under the average 7-day percentage of Intensive Care Unit staffed bed occupancy needed for moving to phase 2, but did not meet metrics for the 14-day trend in COVID cases, new COVID hospital admissions, and the seven-day percentage of positive COVID tests.
