Amid global heat waves unprecedented in human times, The Seattle Times published a piece regarding prevention of deaths during Washington heat waves. The article referenced a report from the Climate Impacts Group at University of Washington that concluded the 2021 Washington heat dome caused the deaths of 441 Washingtonians, far higher than previous estimates.
Today, more than 185,000 Americans and 1,900 Washingtonians are dead from COVID-19. The 5.7 million Americans and 73,000 Washingtonians and 6 million Americans who have so far survived the virus will suffer consequences we cannot yet comprehend. This year, more than one million state residents sought unemployment insurance. More than 600,000 citizens lack health insurance, and several hundred thousand are under-insured.
