Virus Outbreak New York

FiLE - In this Wednesday, May 23, 2018, file photo, white markers, each indicating a mass grave of about 150 people, are displayed on Hart Island in New York. On Monday, April 6, 2020, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said that officials are exploring the possibility of temporarily burying coronavirus victims on Hart Island, a one-mile, limited access strip off the Bronx borough of New York that has long served as the city's potter's field. The mayor told TV station NY1 that under such a contingency plan, bodies of COVID-19 victims would be buried individually, not in mass graves, so families could later reclaim them.
