State officials reported Hermiston man as Oregon’s 226th coronavirus death. His family says they’re wrong
Quote:
Everything seemed fine as Robert Smith visited his in-laws outside Hermiston. But about 15 minutes later, after he’d returned to his home just up the road, his wife received the call from her mother. . . .
They arrived to see an ambulance already parked in the driveway. Edward Griggs, 83, was being treated for a heart attack. About 18 minutes later, Griggs was dead. . . .
Officials on the scene asked if Griggs had shown any symptoms of the coronavirus. Their answer was no, but it was difficult to be sure.
Smith requested a post-mortem test to ensure his family wasn’t at risk of infection. His wife was undergoing chemotherapy, and he worried that if the test was positive, her treatment might be put on hold. The following day, July 4, the test came back positive. Soon after, the Oregon Health Authority declared Griggs the state’s 226th victim of the coronavirus.
