Question on date of 1st COVID-19 death in WV[edit]
The last sentence of first paragraph cites reference 1 as April 1st for first COVID-19 death in WV but reference 14 in the timeline section 5th paragraph says it was March 29. I can confirm March 29 via reference 14, however I was unable to locate the date when searching reference 1. --Arual Mackey (talk) 11:15, 25 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
From my research, the date the first death was reported was March 29. I changed it; I don't know where the April 1st came from. Leviavery (talk) 23:48, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
