    Numbers locally, statewide and nationally continue to fade.  The entire nation only had 10,000 new cases and 200 deaths yesterday.  For perspective over 8,500 died of something else.  Hopefully Inslee follows the lead of the majority of states (including California) and opens up before June 30.  Enjoy summer!

    In Los Angeles visiting friends, and today is Independence Day with social distancing and masks no longer required, with a few exceptions.  LA County has had test positive rates significantly below 1.0% for months. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
