As of Friday, June 26, there is a statewide order that requires all individuals to wear a face covering in indoor public spaces and outdoors when they cannot stay 6 feet apart from others. These materials help highlight what type of mask to wear and how to wear it properly in order to maximize protection for yourself and others.

Recent data shows that more folks in King County are regularly wearing masks. 📈 But, simultaneously, we’re seeing the number of people social distancing going down. 📉 Neither masks nor physical distancing alone blocks all transmission. 〰️They work better together 〰️ #MaskUpWa #socialdistancing

As we begin to reopen, it means more opportunities for COVID-19 to spread. That’s why it’s all the more important to practice the basics of COVID-19 prevention: wear a face covering, stay at least 6′ apart, and wash your hands. Wearing a face covering is now a requirement, not a directive. Please, protect yourself and others and #maskupwa ❤️
