The coronavirus is still among us. A La Conner Weekly News staff member called late Wednesday afternoon to report a positive test and not feeling well. That was still the situation Monday.

Staff started wearing masks in the office Thursday. Policy is to test before working. Those with the same test results – negative or positive – can come to work. Staff will follow federal Centers for Disease Controls protocols for coming to work.

All staff members are vaccinated and have booster shots.

The pandemic is not over and it is not past.
