WCAAP vice president Dr. Beth Ebel spoke with the Seattle Times about the potential for an increase in COVID-19 cases as families return from spring break.
“We expect there will be a bump (in cases) after spring break, and this can be associated with hanging out with friends and family as well as the likely increase with the new omicron variant (BA.2),” said Dr. Beth Ebel, vice president of the Washington Chapter American Academy of Pediatrics board.
