Gov. Tim Walz on Sunday said that Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff for Minnesotans who lost to COVID-19.

In a Facebook post, Walz said Minnesota’s flags will be lowered to remember and honor the lives of Minnesotans who have died from COVID-19.

"We must commit to doing everything we can to slow the spread of this deadly pandemic," Walz wrote.
