Two more COVID-19 deaths reported in Clallam County

Two more Clallam County residents have died from the COVID-19 virus, it was reported Wednesday.

Rian Anderson, Port Angeles district manager for Black Ball Ferry Line, stands on the forward deck of the MV Coho, which will resume daily journeys across the Strait of Juan de Fuca today, 20 months after it was docked by international border restrictions due to COVID-19. The Port Angeles Chamber of Commerce plans a small send-off when it leaves for its first run at 8:20 a.m. and a large welcome of Canadians, who have sold out the ferry, at noon at the ferry terminal.
