In a news release, Governor Walz says the one-million mark deserves recognition.
Over two years ago, our state mourned the first death of a Minnesotan to COVID-19. Since then, Minnesotans got through one of the most challenging periods in our state’s history the way we always get through hardships – together.
Individuals and businesses are encouraged to join in to honor Minnesotans who have lost their lives to COVID-19 and their families.
