OLYMPIA (AP) — Washington Gov. Jay Inslee says he and the governors of Oregon and California have issued travel advisories urging people entering their states or returning from travel outside those states to self-quarantine to slow the spread of the coronavirus.

A statement Friday says the advisories urge against non-essential out-of-state travel, ask people to self-quarantine for 14 days after arriving from another state or country and encourage residents to stay local. California Gov. Gavin Newsome notes that California just surpassed the sobering threshold of 1 million COVID-19 cases with no sign of the virus spread slowing.
