Respiratory illness activity in Grant County continues to decline, according to the Grant County Health District's Sept. 3 announcement. The health district urged healthcare providers to remain vigilant as the 2025-2026 respiratory illness season concludes.

A separate alert issued Aug. 27 warns residents to keep people and pets away from the shoreline between Trinidad Beach and Chinook Park due to a potential harmful algae bloom in the Crescent Bar area. A related FAQ was published Aug. 29 to address public concerns.

The health district also announced a Community Resource Fair and International Overdose Awareness Day event set for Aug. 29 at McCosh Park in Moses Lake, running from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.
