Coronavirus numbers are climbing in Washington County and that concerns Washington County Commission Chairperson Diana Irey-Vaughan. Irey-Vaughan tells WJPA News that she spoke with Governor Tom Wolf’s office on Thursday and was informed that the county has been placed on a mitigation watch list because of the alarming daily increases in COVID-19 cases. Irey-Vaughan says the Governor has noticed the uptick and there is a danger that the county could be forced to shut down again if the trend continues. Irey-Vaughan is urging every resident to be extremely diligent when going out, especially with the July 4th holiday weekend coming up. Irey-Vaughan is reminding everyone to “mask-up” and practice social distancing.
