Washington State confi rms fi rst coronavirus case
Offi ce of the Governor
Washington state responds to nation’s
fi rst novel coronavirus case
Gov. Jay Inslee joined the Washington
State Department of Health, local juris-
dictions and the Centers for Disease Con-
trol and Prevention to outline the state’s
response to the fi rst confi rmed case of the
novel coronavirus at a press conference
in Snohomish County Tuesday.
Washington State Department of
Health Secretary John Wiesman and
members of the medical community
joined Inslee during the event.
“Based on what we know, risk to the
general public is low,” Inslee said. “But
we want to make it clear: our teams are
employing a layered approach to combat
this. We have strong partnerships and a
tiered public health system in place.”
Inslee also thanked the medical com-
munity and local leaders for swift action.
He released a statement later that day in
response to the health emergency.
For better espresso use fewer beans, say researchers
Christopher Hendon

Mathematicians, physicists, and
materials experts might not spring
to mind as the fi rst people to con-
sult about whether you are brewing
your coffee right. But a team of such
researchers from around the globe —
the United States, the United King-
dom, Ireland, Australia, and Swit-
zerland — are challenging common
espresso wisdom, fi nding that fewer
coffee beans, ground more coarsely,
are the key to a drink that is cheaper
to make, more consistent from shot to

coffee beans to get a mix of bitterness
and sour acidity that is unpredictable
and irreproducible,” says co-senior
author Christopher Hendon a compu-
tational chemist at the University of
Oregon. “It sounds counterintuitive,
but experiments and modeling suggest
that effi cient, reproducible shots can
be accessed by simply using less cof-
fee and grinding it more coarsely.”
Boosting the extraction yield
through one or more of the routes
illustrated by the model could also
lead to economic gains for cafes and
to sustainability benefi ts for the coffee
industry as a whole.
