SBLive Washington podcast: How does new guidance help high school sports restart efforts? /

On Tuesday, the Washington Governor’s Office, the Department of Health and the WIAA announced new return-to-action guidelines for high school sports, a much-awaited announcement that redefines how and when sports can return.

The guidelines hinge on number of positive cases per 100,000 people and the positive test rate. On Thursday's episode of the SBLive Washington podcast, Dan Dickau, Todd Milles and Andy Buhler break down the new guidelines and try to answer if the news brings us closer to a return to play or not.
