Washington County Death (Now It's Deaths)

There was another COVID-19 death in Washington County. Southwest Utah Public Health Department is no longer providing dates, but it was reported on the 12th, so I'd guess it was on the 11th.

I posted on May 19th that I was worried that deaths had doubled in the last 25 days. All deaths are a tragedy, but it is a good thing that it took 23 days for the death toll to go from four to five rather four to eight.

*********************************

I wrote too soon.

Today's update shows 2 more deaths, so we're up to 7 now. Both occurred on June 12th.

Also, there's now a case in Beaver County. This may as well be lumped in with Iron County, since Beaver County has zero ICU beds.
