The scene looks like so many from viral outbreak movies: a person in a white mask and protective suit spraying a substance into the air.
The only thing missing from the Community Transit video is audio of television news anchors talking about a disease sweeping the nation.
Except its as real as it gets, and its necessary to help stem the tide of the viral respiratory disease.
Thousands of people board a bus, hop in a vanpool, sail on a ferry or take a train to work across Snohomish County every day, and the new coronavirus disease COVID-19 has prompted commuters and transit agencies to change their habits.
Overall, like our regional transportation partners, we have continued to see a decline in ridership over the past few days, Community Transit spokeswoman Nashika Stanbro said.
