How Do We Grieve 300,000 Lives Lost? – Nation & World News

How Do We Grieve 300,000 Lives Lost? By Will Stone  December 14, 2020 More than 300,000 people have died from COVID-19 in the United States. It is the latest sign of a generational tragedy one still unfolding in every corner of the country that leaves in its wake an expanse of grief that cannot be captured in a string of statistics. “The numbers do not reflect that these were people,” says Brian Walter, whose 80-year-old father, John, died from COVID-19. “Everyone lost was a father or a mother, they had kids, they had family, they left people behind.” There is no analogue in recent U.S history to the scale of death brought on by the coronavirus, which now runs unchecked in countless towns, cities and states.

First doses of COVID-19 vaccines arrive in Seattle

First doses of COVID-19 vaccines arrive in Seattle KOMO News Staff Replay Video UP NEXT SEATTLE The first 3,900 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine arrived in Seattle Monday morning, the first of thousands of doses on the way to our state as we hope to turn the corner against the raging pandemic. Four boxes of the recently-approved Pfizer vaccine arrived packed in dry ice at the University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle. Each box carries 195 vials; each vial contains enough vaccine for five doses for a total of 975 doses per box. So we re going to take one box out and it s going to go here (at University of Washington Medical Center) and it s going to be loaded into our ultra cold freezer, said Steve Fijalka, UW Medical Center Chief Pharmacy Officer, as they opened their inaugural vaccine shipment in front of news cameras and carefully placed the box inside the freezer at -78 degrees C. Then we re going to go deliver to our other three hospital sites:
