Skagit County event shows how easily COVID-19 spreads
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released a new report detailing a "superspreading event" that occurred in Skagit County in March. After a choir practice attended by 61 choir members, 52 became ill with COVID-19 symptoms. Three members were hospitalized and two died.
This tragedy shows how easily COVID-19 spreads between people. To stop the spread of COVID-19, avoid groups, stay at least six feet apart, and wear cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain.
