The positive case finding was confirmed after the man’s death, and he was not among the nine confirmed cases currently under monitoring by county public health officials. Due to the nature of how the case was reported to the county, health officials have not been able to confirm the cause of the man’s death, nor do they know if the man had come in contact with the virus locally or through travel.
