40 years ago today, people pushed the state to reopen areas around Mt. St. Helens citing tourism & the economy against advice of scientists. Five days later, the volcano erupted. #msh40
This year, we’re encouraging you to remember the 40th anniversary Mt. St. Helens' eruption inside. The Johnston Ridge Observatory & @WAStatePks visitor center both remain closed. The @MSHInstitute has a huge list of virtual events on its website.

Senior Centers concerned with #COVID19 should consider strategies to
➡️ reduce transmission among staff
➡️ protect people who are at higher risk for adverse health complications
➡️ maintain business operations if that’s their plan
➡️ minimize effects on other support agencies
The @WADeptHealth has strategies in place to help senior centers with their planning efforts to protect our most vulnerable populations & reduce the spread of disease in our communities. Info here: doh.wa.gov/Emergencies/No…

We have to work together to plan now. #COVID19
Persons who are older are at higher risk to develop complications from #COVID19: Your health and the health of those you care about are important to us & it may be recommended that you stay at home and away from other people during this time. Learn more: doh.wa.gov/Emergencies/No…
