As the City of Mukilteo and surrounding areas continue to monitor the latest information from the Snohomish Health District, Department of Health and Center for Disease Control (CDC) regarding the COVID-19 coronavirus they ask community members to stay informed, calm and vigilant in order to keep our communities safe.
We put together a resource guide for local Mukilteo residents that will keep them informed with factual information.
This is a work in progress, we will be updating this information as it becomes available. Last update 12:50pm 3/3/2020
