more than 529,000 americans have died, the highest death toll of any nation in the world and nearly 2,000 people in the united states are still dying each day. this isn t over. and the numbers don t tell the whole story. it is the lives interrupted, the families suddenly broken, so many people left to die and grief alone that really hit that does hit the hardest and cannot be forgotten. mothers and fathers and brothers, sisters and friends and coworkers, so many taken too soon. i know i m going to remember michelle, a nurse whose brother-in-law, sister-in-law and mother in law were all admitted to her hospital and she was the only person able to hold her mother-in-law edna s hand as she passed. unlike in a normal circumstance where you would be together gathering as a family, we ve all had to work through this separately. and there is also danielle lopez whose uncle was killed by the virus last summer. it just i m sorry, i m trying to even process that all that th
