VIRGINIA — The United States recently surpassed yet another devastating milestone in the coronavirus pandemic. To date, more than 300,000 Americans have lost their lives to the coronavirus. In Virginia, the state has seen more than 4,600 residents die from COVID-19, the respiratory disease caused by the coronavirus.
Just over 700 District of Columbia residents have lost their battle with the virus.
It's an impossible number. It's also impossible to convey the full extent of the losses using only numbers.
