masking

During the height of the pandemic the rate of infection was 500 to 700 cases per 100,000.

But masks will still be required on Yakima Transit and at the airport.

Washington State is the only state on the west coast with an indoor masking mandate that has no end date.

Yakima Health District officials continue to sound the alarm about growing COVID-19 cases.

State officials are monitoring the situation. The governor is expected to give an update later this week.
