The United States surpassed 200,000 COVID-19-related deaths on Tuesday, according to a database maintained by Johns Hopkins University.
The deaths, all of which have occurred since February, exceed the number of Americans lost in World War I, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Afghanistan War, and the Iraq War together.
The 200,000 deaths are the largest of all countries in the world. Recently, Brazil ranks in the United States, with some 137,000 deaths.
According to Johns Hopkins, the United States also has one of the world’s COVID-19 mortality rates: about 61 out of every 100,000 Americans died of COVID-19. It ranks sixth overall and corporate in countries such as Spain (65. 27) and Mexico (58. 24)
The United States also leads the world with 6. 8 million COVID-19 cases; India (5. 5 million), Brazil (4. 5 million) and Russia (1. 1 million) are the other countries with at least 1 million cases of viruses.
Johns Hopkins reports that COVID-19 cases were reduced daily in August; however, case rates are higher in September and more sensitive fitness experts like Dr. Anthony Fauci are preparing for a tricky winter.
Earlier this month, Fauci warned that a winter surge could be imaginable as the weather forces Americans indoors and cities begin to remove blocking restrictions from COVID-19.
The University of Washington Institute of Health Assessment and Metrics, a style used in the White House, recently predicts that 175,000 more Americans will die from the virus until January 1. This projection can fall to 65,000 more deaths, with a universal mask mandate and up to 225,000 more deaths may accumulate with a remnant of restrictions.
