In Wahkiakum County, counts for health issues often cannot be reported because the small numbers could compromise individuals’ confidentiality. To avoid this issue, we combine our number with other counties to increase counts so that we can deliver important health information about our communities.
We’ve worked together as a 6-county region in SW Washington - Clark, Cowlitz, Lewis, Pacific, Skamania, and Wahkiakum Counties - to produce these regional reports.
