With California and Oregon rolling back indoor mask mandates, pressure is growing on Washington Gov. Jay Inslee to do the same.
“It’s the beginning of the end, it’s not the end, it’s the beginning of the end. And yes, by the end of this month, our level of infection will be very low,” Mokdad said.“You don’t want to lose trust. It’s very important to build trust, it’s very important to level with the public,” Mokdad said.“I think it’s too early to even talk about that idea, personally,” said Dr. Kunal Joshi of Overlake Medical Center.
Bob Donegan of Ivar’s said he trusts the health experts, as do most of his customers.“Fewer than 12 people complained about having to wear a mask, so at least for our customers, it hasn’t been a big issue,” Donegan said.“We’re looking for certainty and predictability. This is a moment of time where we need to know where are we at, and have we rounded that corner,” said Kristofer Johnson from the Association of Washington Business.
