The Journal on the number of deaths in West Virginia due to the coronavirus pandemic: For a few months last spring, we West Virginians looked on in horror as many of our fellow Americans died by the thousands in what to us was still only a threat - COVID-19. By April 30, we felt lucky that our state had recorded the comparatively very low total of only 40 deaths from the disease. Now we are part of the horror.
