The Ventura County Medical Examiner's Office reported that Fillmore Council Member Ari Larson died from coronary artery disease, and undiagnosed type 2 diabetes. Larson had also suffered a previous heart attack she was not aware of, and a lung tumor.

It is also reported that Larson avoided doctor visits and that no family members knew of her serious condition. The report stated Larson was not under the care of a physician and took no medication. "She was not known to drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes or use illicit drugs."

The autopsy report showed "severe narrowing of the three main coronary arteries due to atherosclerosis." The report also stated, "Larson contracted COVID-19 in January and was vaccinated in April." (Quotes, Ventura County Star)
