“The last thing I want to do is to have to buy any more flags. And the best way to do that is to get vaccinated.”

📺ICYMI: More than a statistic.
“It’s a human being. It’s a person. It’s a father.”
Indiana families are among the thousands on an interactive map, creating a visual record of coronavirus victims.
Their faces, their stories, their memories.

Each of the nearly 700,000 flags represents an individual American who lost their life due to the pandemic. "You are more than a statistic, you are my dad," reads one handwritten dedication. Learn more about @inamericaflags and the people it mourns: ow.ly/NYLD50GjOf7

Did you have a customized flag for your lost loved one at the original @inamericaflags near RFK Stadium? If so, look for that flag in Section 00, close to the Washington Monument. Volunteers who also lost loved ones to #Covid are planting those flags there now. #InAmericaRemember

650,000+ flags — representing every American killed by COVID-19 — are being placed over 20 acres as part of an @inamericaflags installation.
It’s the largest art installation on the Mall since the AIDS Memorial Quilt, the group says.
