Will County Stay in Phase-3? Governor to Make Announcement
Yakima County officials are optimistic about Yakima staying in Phase-3 of the state's reopening plan this week. Governor Jay Inslee is expected to make an announcement on Tuesday on whether or not some counties in the state will have to move back to more restrictive measures because of rising COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. There's already news out that King County, the largest county in the state will likely be moved back to Phase-2 of the state's reopening plan. If the county is moved back to Phase-2 capacity at gyms, restaurants and retail outlets will go from the current 50% capacity to 25% capacity.
