Ms Ferguson said the families are continuing to honour lost loved ones by ensuring everything is done to keep people safe in the future. "Nobody wants to be in our position but as, sadly, so many of us in Northern Ireland find ourselves missing a loved one to Covid-19 we will come together to make sure our voices are heard loud and clear," she added.
