CDC website updated Jan 4, 2021:
The CDC publishes provisional death counts involving COVID-19. Beginning the week 12/29/2019-01/2/20 it shows 5 COVID-19 deaths occurring in states: CT, SC, IL and LA. The following week another 5 deaths involving COVID-19 in states: CT, NJ, AR and KS. The third week 3 deaths in states: CA, IL and TN. Followed by 2 deaths in WI and VA and week ending 02/01/20 a death in NV. (Possibly indicating that COVID-19 began somewhere other than west coast, based on where deaths occurred.)
Clearly, COVID-19 was traveling all over the US by Jan 2020 to have, at this point, 16 deaths in the month of Jan 2020; deaths coast to coast.
Feb 2020: 15 deaths total in states: CA, LA, MA, MI, NY, PA, TX, WA
CDC has not released information on deaths, if any, from COVID-19 occurring earlier than Dec. 29, 2019.
NOTE: This information was extrapolated by looking at the deaths during each week in Jan 2020 from COVID-19, then looking at individual states' reports. When a report was blank, another page indicates that information missing in blank can indicate from 1-9 deaths. Consequently, some of the states listed above had more than one death. The current web page listed above is updated daily.
American Red Cross study (Dec 1, 2020):
...The findings of this study indicate that that it is possible the virus that causes COVID-19 may have been present in California, Oregon, and Washington as early as Dec. 13-16, 2019, and in Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin as early as Dec. 30, 2019 - Jan. 17, 2020. Although researchers at the CDC found antibodies that reacted to the virus in blood donations from all nine states that were part of this study, the percentage of blood samples with these antibodies was very low—indicating the virus was not widespread...
