The Great Commission - Covid deaths in around the world, flyershot "Tribute" video
Since the beginning of the pandemic, nearly 30,000 people are known to have died in New York City in connection with the virus. Businesses started to shutdown across the state. At the time, the city had about 5,600 confirmed cases of the virus, though with testing limited, public health officials thought the true number of infections was most likely higher. Researchers later said that the virus was most likely spreading in the city earlier than residents initially realized, leading to a further undercount.
