Share this: Forty-two counties and several parts of Alaska have yet to record their first death related to Covid-19. But for rural Grant County, Washington, the first death from Covid-19 came only weeks after the World Health Organization had named the deadly respiratory illness. On March 8, 2020, a nursing home resident in the town of Quincy, Washington, just east of the Cascade Mountains, became the first rural victim of Covid-19, according to data compiled by USA Facts.   Just three days earlier, on March 5, the Grant County Health District had begun an urgent contact tracing effort. According to a local CBS TV affiliate, they sought to identify anyone “who [has] visited events at the Quincy Senior Center between February 13 and 28, and a Quincy High School musical production on February 2.”
