As COVID-19 continues to spread, some of the people who died from the virus have been from Shasta County.  

As of May 28, a total of 230 people have died because they contracted the virus, according to the Shasta County Health and Human Services Agency.

While some misleading rumors have circulated about what deaths are counted as COVID-19 deaths, health officials explained that all the deaths they reported were caused by COVID-19.

"For example, a person may have died from COVID because an underlying condition (such as COPD) made it impossible for them to recover, but they would not have died from that condition at that time if they hadn't developed COVID. In other instances, COVID may have caused a condition (such as blood clots or lung damage) that led to the person's death, which would not have happened if the person had not gotten COVID," officials wrote in a Sept. 3 news release. 

"Each of these cases are considered COVID deaths, and all COVID deaths are based on death certificate completion by the attending physician or coroner," read the release.

Shasta County officials reported 64 COVID-19 deaths in January 2021, more than double any other month since the start of the pandemic. 

A total of 138 men have died in Shasta County, compared to 92 women. Fifty-five of those who died were in their 60s or younger, while 175 were in their 70s or older.

A death being reported on a certain day does not necessarily mean the individual died on that day, as it can take time for officials to confirm a cause of death.

County health officials report the number of COVID-19 deaths each weekday on HHSA Facebook and Twitter pages. More local coronavirus statistics can be found on ShastaReady.org.

Separately, Shasta County officials reported three flu deaths in 2020, up from two deaths in 2019, according to an HHSA spokeswoman.
