Covid-19 Poll of the Lakes Region

As I'm sitting on my desktop here in Waltham I'm watching an ambulance take my neighbor away.
He's been outside painting his deck the past few days. I don't think he's injured so I may know someone that has it now.

Have there been any / many verified reports of people in the lakes region being hospitalized for and / or dying from covid-19 yet?

Out west they have a daily report of the new number of reported cases in the county and the number of deaths.

Names of victims are usually not mentioned publicly, nor their location, so it is impossible to know how close it has come to your own location.

CONCORD, N.H. —
New Hampshire health officials announced Saturday that two more people in the state have died of COVID-19, bringing the total to nine.

The two deaths were male residents of Hillsborough County who were over 60 years old. DHHS did not announce whether either had underlying medical conditions.

Officials with the Department of Health and Human Services announced 81 new positive tests, the most announced in a single day so far.

The new cases are in people living in the following counties: Hillsborough (36, including 23 in Manchester and 7 in Nashua); Rockingham (26); Merrimack (4); Strafford (4); Belknap (3); Grafton (3); Cheshire (1); and Sullivan (1).

(Positive results reported likely due to increased testing. My guess is the true numbers will never be known as so many recover or have mild symptoms.)
