Case updates April 19, 2021 - King County remains in Phase 3 after review of metrics

 
Positive cases in King county 4-20-2021

 Vaccine Locations
The State’s Healthy Washington: Roadmap to Recovery plan defines the various phases related to re-opening and sets the metrics associated with moving up or down a phase. 

For large counties like King, the thresholds to remain in Phase 3 are fewer than 200 cases per 100,000 people over a 14 day period and fewer than 5 new hospitalizations per 100,000 over a 7 day period. 

A county must exceed both metrics to go to Phase 2. King County had been trending towards these thresholds since mid-march, but was below them as of the State’s evaluation on Monday. King County will remain in Phase 3. Precautions are still needed.
