Washington Governor Jay Inslee is considering mandatory measures like school closures.
Washington state cases jumped by 105 to 267 cases on Tuesday with 24 deaths, nearly all of them in the greater-Seattle area. “Shutting down any social activity has profound consequences in people’s lives,” said Inslee. “You have to see if there are ways to reduce them or ameliorate that.” “New York under the leadership of Governor Cuomo is taking some of the strongest and sensible mitigation steps in US,” tweeted Scott Gottlieb, former head of the Food and Drug Administration. “It stands in stark contrast to Washington State, which has been slow to act forcefully in Seattle.”
