The sun rises behind the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. on March 23, 2021
Flags are seen flying at half-staff at the Washington Monument on February 24, 2021, as Mayor Muriel Bowser proclaims the day ‘A Day of Remembrance for Lives Lost to COVID-19’, and ordered all flags in the city flown at half-staff. The District marked its 1,000th death today, the nation recently passed 500,000 deaths from the virus and the Mayor's sister also passed away earlier in the day due to complications from Covid-19.
