Hospitalizations level off, but health officials warn we’re not out of the woods just yet
Even as hospitalizations level off in Washington state and two COVID-19 vaccines begin making the rounds, officials warn it’s still too soon to let down our guard.
“We are really at an all time high for COVID patients in our state,” says Dr. Steve Mitchell, medical director at Harborview Medical Center’s emergency department. “The last few days, things seem to have been leveling off just a little bit, which we are really pleased about. But in general, our health system is stressed.”
