COVID-19 activity declining in Washington with the help of face masks, social distancing
Coronavirus activity in Washington state appears to be declining as of late August, according to the latest situation report released by the Washington State Department of Health (DOH).
The report released Friday shows the reproductive number, that's how many new people each COVID-19 patient will infect, was estimated at 0.86 for western Washington on Aug. 17, which is down from the estimate of 0.97 in the state's last report. In eastern Washington, the reproductive number was estimated at 0.91 on Aug. 14, down from the estimate of 0.98 in the last report.
The goal is to get the reproductive number well below one across the state, experts said.
The DOH said they're seeing decreases in case counts across all ages groups in both eastern and western Washington since the start of August.

Hope the ponies will leave them alone this time!
