Inslee issued his face covering order on May 29th.

Look at the chart after that.

    California is the case study in locking down too early and the people lose patience.

    Maybe all these protests are causing people to become infected. Just a wild ass theory. Notice Inslee won't even comment on that big elephant in the room.

    Be curious to look at how Japan dealt with the virus given their density and history of mask use.

    Probably a good idea to learn what worked and maybe use that to guide what we should be doing versus governors pulling plans out of their asses. Inslee's changes today don't really appear that related to science and data...

    The complete set of charts for king county. Science and Data, folks. Recognize, short of Yakima, King County is the heart of the pandemic in WA State.

    Positive Cases: OMG - GRIM!!!!



    Hospitalizations: Steady and low despite a long, long trend of uptick in positive cases. Cordwood will never be stacked with #s like these.



    Cordwood counter: Low and Steady for a long time....again despite the long period of uptick in positive cases. Cordwood not to be found.

    Ignore it unless you have underlying conditions.

    Problem solved.

    Don’t forget the chart on tests. It shows that testing has taken off. If we were testing at the same levels in March and April how many positive cases would we have then? We wouldn’t be at record levels of positive cases now. Fuck Inslee.

    Actually they did work. A very clear rise in the positivity rate flatlined about a week after the mask mandate was actually made enforceable.


    Rt has also been sitting under 1.


    Would like to see some further improvement, but for now WA adding more cases is merely a result of testing more.

    PEOPLE WONT WEAR THEM!!!!

    If you wore them in March, you were attempting to murder doctors and nurses by starving them of essential PPE.

    Now you're supposed to wear them constantly. Like some kind of killing machine.

    That is not what I'm seeing. It was made enforceable statewide July 7th. What about the large dip prior to the statewide mandate? While their is variances that could support your opinion it is nothing above correlation as a causation. This is not adhering to a strict standard that suffices for meeting a scientific method.

    Correction: Statewide mask mandate was made June 26th. It was made mandatory for businesses to enforce the mask mandate on July 7th. Still doesn't line up with the data in any meaningful way.
