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.

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.
