Newest numbers. The Washington State Department of Health (DOH) reported a total of 1,446,845 confirmed cases as of 11:59 p.m. on March 20. There have been 12,355 COVID-19 deaths in Washington.
Data note (Monday, March 14): Due to a technical issue in our data systems, the Health Care System Readiness data may be incomplete. DOH also continues to experience delays in reporting cases, hospitalizations, and deaths as a result of prior slowdowns in our data systems during the omicron surge. We are clearing these backlogged cases, hospitalizations, and deaths as resources permit. The COVID-19 Epidemiological Curves tab is the most accurate representation of COVID-19 activity and is updated daily as new cases are identified and duplicates are resolved.
For the most recent number of cases by county, demographics, and more, visit the Department of Health’s dashboard.
