Face Coverings Still Required In Some Areas

Last week the State Secretary of Health issued an order regarding the wearing of face coverings.

Even though the Washington State COVID state of emergency is over doesn’t mean you can throw your masks away. Last week the State Secretary of Health issued an order regarding the wearing of face coverings. Dr. Umair Shah gave the order saying masks are still required regardless of vaccination status in health care settings  such as doctors’ offices and dentist offices.  The order also applies to prison and jail facilities where the CDC Community Level for COVID is medium or high. A link to read the full order can be found at our website.
