A year after the start of the coronavirus crisis, the US metropolis New York celebrated its more than 30,000 pandemic deaths in an emotional ceremony.
Meanwhile, more New Yorkers have died from CoV than from the Second World War, the Vietnam War, the hurricane “Sandy” and the attacks of September 11, 2001 combined, said Mayor Bill de Blasio at the virtual memorial event yesterday. He praised the employees of the health services as “heroes”.
The ceremony was initiated by a minute’s silence in honor of the CoV dead. Images of pandemic victims were projected onto the Brooklyn Bridge. With 30,258 CoV deaths, New York is the city in the USA hardest hit by the pandemic.
