SEATTLE — COVID-19 is resurging as many people are taking their summer vacations but Washington State Department of Health (DOH) data shows booster rates are low. Only 19.2% of Washingtonians are up to date on their vaccines.
While DOH data shows COVID-19 hospitalizations are significantly less than in previous years, cases have steadily increased since May.
According to The Associated Press (AP), health officials have reported an uptick in cases this month but aren’t sure if it’s a sign of a coming summer wave, which has happened previously, or just a blip.
