As workers take down the viewing stands for Joe Biden’s inauguration on January 20th — he has asked people to stay away — his team revealed that the day before the ceremony there will be a tribute to those who lost their lives to COVID this year.

For the first time, the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool will be lit up and church bells will ring

Cities and towns across America are encouraged to ring bells as well.

Memorial will take place at 5:30 p.m. ET on January 19 – the day before Biden takes the oath of office
