COVID-19
COVID-19 is an active situation that is changing frequently. The City of Marysville is actively monitoring this situation for updates and information that impact our community.
Washington State Coronavirus Info
Update (Jan. 5, 2021)
Gov. Jay Inslee announced “Healthy Washington — Roadmap to Recovery,” a COVID-19 phased recovery plan. Beginning on January 11, the state will follow a regional recovery approach with every region beginning in Phase 1. We are in the Puget Sound region, comprised of King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties.
A region's phase will be determined by the Washington state Department of Health (DOH) in response to four metric requirements. The final metrics for regions will be calculated on Jan. 8 and will be effective Jan. 11. The metrics for each region will be updated on the Risk Assessment Dashboard every Friday. Dependent on a region’s metrics, DOH will move into a new phase — forward or backward — the following Monday.
To move from Phase 1 to Phase 2, regions must meet all four metrics:
- Decreasing trend of at least 10% in two-week rate of COVID-19 cases per 100,000 population.
- Decreasing trend of at least 10% in two-week rate of new COVID-19 hospital admission rates per 100,000 population.
- Total ICU occupancy (COVID-19 and non-COVID-19) of less than 90%.
- COVID-19 test positivity rate of less than 10%.
To remain in Phase 2, regions must meet at least three metrics:
- Decreasing or flat trend in two-week rate of COVID-19 cases per 100,000 population.
- Decreasing trend in two-week rate of new COVID-19 hospital admission rates per 100,000 population.
- Total ICU occupancy (COVID-19 and non-COVID-19) of less than 90%.
- COVID-19 test positivity rate of less than 10%.
Regions that fail to meet two or more of the above metrics will be moved back to Phase 1.
The following graphic provides information on what activities are allowed, limited, and prohibited in Phases 1 and 2 of the Healthy Washington Plan. Long-term care facilities, K-12 education and childcare, professional and collegiate sports remain governed by their current guidance/proclamations separate from this plan.
Marysville and Snohomish County must comply with state direction. The state website has detailed information including state orders, reopening guidance for businesses, a Guide to Safer Gatherings and more.

How can we prevent the spread of viruses?
The usual precautions for viruses apply for preventing spread of infection. They include:
- Wash your hands frequently using soap and water for at least 20 seconds; and clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth.
- Cover your coughs and sneezes with a tissue.
- Coronavirus is most contagious while an individual is exhibiting symptoms. It is crucial that employees be sent home or refrain from coming into work if they have any symptoms of the virus.
- Update your home emergency kit with food, prescription medicines and other supplies for up to two weeks. Find tips and ideas here: City of Marysville Emergency Management - Preparedness.
