Why does ‘t the Pierce County DOH COVID-19 Dashboard have any information regarding incidents of the many “variants of concern”, particularly the “Delta” variant? The WA State Dashboard has some information, but doesn’t include any case statistics (e.g., infected, hospitalized, deaths). Marin County in CA San Francisco Bay Area, has a 92% vaccinated rate and purportedly the lowest incidents of COVID-19 cases. However, it is rapidly becoming the highest in the “Delta variant”. Shouldn’t WA and Pierce County be a bit more concerned and transparent?
