EVERETT — Federal aid to fight COVID-19 is coming to Snohomish County.

Nine pallets of personal protective equipment from the federal stockpile arrived Friday, and hundreds of hospital beds could pop up in the Everett area in coming weeks, Snohomish County Executive Dave Somers said at a news conference Friday.

The equipment is being sorted for distribution to local hospitals and clinics. On Thursday, Gov. Jay Inslee outlined updates on statewide resources, testing and results, which he said offered “a glimmer of hope.”

While the statewide curve of new cases each day has begun to flatten slightly, that’s not the case in Snohomish County, said Dr. Chris Spitters, health officer for the Snohomish Health District.

Imagine what we could have if Inslee kissed Trump's enormous ass.

3. Glad to hear this.

It's better than nothing, but woefully inadequate. 9 pallets isn't even close to what we need.
