About Coronavirus 2020
Washingtonian is keeping you up to date on the coronavirus around DC.
The District has once again expanded its list of high-risk states, adding California, Oregon, and New Jersey. No states were removed from the list since the last time the city updated it two weeks ago. That means 42 states in total are now considered “high-risk” by the DC. And only six states aren’t on the list, since Virginia and Maryland are exempted.
Individuals coming into the District from states included on the list must self-quarantine for two weeks unless they’re engaging in essential work. Here’s the entire list.
