769 Coronavirus Cases In Washington, 2 New Deaths In King County

SEATTLE, WA — State and local health officials confirmed 126 more cases of COVID-19 in Washington on Saturday, bringing the state's confirmed total to 769. Officials also announced two new deaths in King County, marking 37 deaths within the county and 42 statewide.

The two new King County deaths were both residents of Life Care Center in Kirkland: a woman in her 60s who died at Franciscan Medical on Saturday, and a woman in her 70s who died on Thursday.

Officials on Sunday also repeated a call for the public to give blood, saying donations in the area have fallen steeply since the coronavirus outbreak began. About 2,500 donations have been lost, officials said, putting the local blood supply "in danger of collapse."

There is no danger of contracting the coronavirus by giving blood.
