An additional death associated with a Washakie County long-term care facility facing an outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been reported, according to the Wyoming Department of Health (WDH).

An older woman who was a Washakie County resident has died; she was previously identified as a laboratory-confirmed case.
