Coronavirus hospitalizations in Washington state sharply higher than earlier surveys, but officials say curve still flattening

Nearly 1,000 patients in Washington hospitals have confirmed or suspected diagnoses of COVID-19, according to a new tally  that suggests earlier state surveys significantly undercounted these admissions.

Washington State Hospital Association statistics, current as of April 7, include 664 confirmed and another 331 suspected cases of the disease caused by the coronavirus. About half of the cases are in King County hospitals.
