23 residents at a nursing home in Washington have died of COVID-19. This is after employees attended a 300 person wedding and worked without knowing they contracted COVID-19.
In a press release, the Grant County Health Officer expressed his condolences to the families,
GCHD staff and I wish to extend our most sincere condolences to the families who have lost their loved ones and to our communities affected by these tragic deaths of our most vulnerable community members. We also extend our encouragement and sympathies to the many dedicated healthcare staff and community members who have joined us on this fight against our common enemy.
