Every COVID-19 Death Has A Name

Every COVID-19 Death Has A Name
Green-Wood Cemetery, Brooklyn, NY

Every COVID-19 death has a name... and every COVID-19 death, reported, unreported or covered-up, is real.

Digitially enhanced collage created from the hundreds of posters, flyers, banners, and images attached to Green-Wood Cemetery's fence just to the right of the main entrance at 500 25th Street to reinforce the heart-breaking reality of COVID-19 here in NYC and everywhere in the world.

Commiserations on the loss of your aunt, William. The second wave seems to be building before the first wave has broken. Scientists and health professionals are doing their best; one could only wish politicians had the same dedication. Here in Western Australia we appear to have missed much of the torment that has enveloped the rest of the world. I can only pray that this remains the case. Stay safe and well, please.

Thank you for your condolences Old Owl. Hopefully Australia can remain safe since it is one of only a handful of countries that acted quickly and proactively to avoid disaster. Hope there are no mistakes like happened in New Zealand and Iceland that have now led to small clusters that if not contained quickly could undo their good work. As for the USA, I doubt much changes until we have a new President that acts to stop it. Here in NY, though, thanks to an excellent job by state and local leaders, we're now one of the safest areas. :) Stay well!

My deepest condolences for the loss of people so dear to you.
Here in Italy, at the end of February many opposition politicians began to say that it was just a pneumonia like the others that struck and killed only the oldest and already weakened by previous illnesses and that the Government was exaggerating in taking such strict measures of prevention and lock down!


As if the lives of the old and the elderly didn't matter.
Of course there were people of all ages affected by Covid.
Fortunately, the Government and above all the Governor of my region, the Veneto, acted promptly...
Still, here, in Phase 3, there are various measures of prevention to follow. Most people do but, of course ! not everyone does not caring that Covid is still present and creeping on.
Stay well and safe.

Thank you for doing this, William. We very much need to remember all the people we lost, and are still losing in much of the world. We need a way to mourn those we could not say good bye to, except maybe over the phone, if we were lucky, and those we could not have funerals for, where we could at least hug each other and cry together. As I have said before, we also need to remember the other victims, too: those who could not get proper medical attention because the hospitals were on the brink of total break down, those who were left to fend for themselves and did not make it, those who took their lives in despair at the loss of everything. In some places in Northern Italy, these uncounted victims were up to 4 times more that the official COVID deaths. I wonder how many there are in the countries where we know the numbers are not transparently tallied or in much of Africa where there's no way that they can test as extensively. We very much need to mourn for all of them and very much need such beautiful memorials as yours, to help us remember and, hopefully, if our politicians are not too busy worrying about money and power, plan so we can be better prepared for an invisible enemy that finds its strength in the very social texture of our communities.
Sorry for your terrible losses, William, and thank you so much for doing this.
