NYT commemorates victims of coronavirus on Sunday front page

The front page of this Sunday’s New York Times will lack the usual articles, photos and graphics.

Instead, the entire page is filled with nearly 1,000 names of people who have died from COVID-19 in the United States.

The tribute comes as the nation is poised to hit the grim milestone of nearly 100,000 deaths from the coronavirus pandemic.

Each name is accompanied by a short phrase to depict the life that was lost. A researcher compiled the names from obituaries and death notices published online from hundreds of newspapers, the Times said on its website.
