"We extend our sincere condolences to the families of the individuals who have lost their loved ones due to COVID-19 complications," local health officials said. "Deaths reported by NVHD occurred within the last week, not necessarily since the last NVHD report. For public health surveillance, laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 associated deaths are defined as patients who tested positive for COVID-19 around the time of death; this is not a determination of the cause of death. The health district does not have further details including whether there may have been underlying health issues or other contributing factors."
