I lost my dad to cancer during the pandemic and then two weeks after the funeral my uncle died of Covid.

Yes, especially the first part of the epidemic when the disease was particularly virulent eight people, across my life died of Covid or it’s related symptoms in the first six months

A sister, but it wasn't from Covid.
Aw I'm sorry for that, it's hard losing our parents.

I had several who passed away from natural causes such as old age. No one I know died from covid but 5 people I knew died from the vax. Including a brother in law, a cousin and a cousin in law. The other two were neighbors or went to my church.

Sorry to hear about your Mom. Both my parents passed recently as well.

A few family members had mild to moderate cases of Covid, but I don't personally know anyone who died of it.

My dad died right before the shutdowns. He got sick in 2019, before anyone ever heard of Covid. Got pneumonia for a bit. When he got back home, he was bedridden. He never stood up again. I always wondered if he got the virus, and he was so old and unhealthy that it really messed him up. No proof though. He really did have a lot of health problems.
Also an aunt died shortly after he had. It was her kidneys. She skipped dialysis once, and that was it.

A neighbor. Had the shot one day and died the next.

StraCat · 41-45, M

Almost lost myself but otherwise no.

Jlhzfromep · M

Lost parents but not from covid

AuRevoir · 36-40, M

Too many.. If you start from exactly one years time of the shut down.. which is how mg mind categorizes it…. It was just a ridiculously fucked up period for me.. since I ended up having my own little health crisis during it..

Heartlander · 80-89, M

Two family members died from diseases unrelated to COVID. No funerals were held but the intent of memorial services at a later date. That didn't happen.

bugeye · 26-30, F

my BF's mom passed towards the end. wasn't covid but she was at high risk. it's not biological she became a second Mom to me. and i still miss her all the same.

I’m sorry for your loss. {hug}

I never lost anyone during the pandemic, but my best friend lost her dad, and the neighbors lost family members.

Thankfully no, but as a Nursing Director we saw many people sadly die from Covid, even some of our Nurses and Doctors died from it trying to save others. 😪
