Coronavirus deaths top 800,000 globally | TheHill

More than 800,000 people globally have died from the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, according to data collected by Johns Hopkins University, a grim milestone underscoring the physical toll the pandemic has taken on nations around the world.

The U.S. has reported the most deaths tied to COVID-19 of any country at more than 175,000, with more than 32,000 of those in New York, nearly 16,000 in New Jersey and almost 12,000 in California. Other states with high death tolls include Texas, Florida, Massachusetts, Illinois and Pennsylvania.

Globally, Brazil follows the U.S. with more than 113,000 deaths tied to COVID-19 as of Saturday, according to Johns Hopkins. The South American nation has led every country except the U.S. in coronavirus cases and related deaths since June.

Other nations that have reported high death tolls amid the pandemic include Mexico at nearly 60,000, India at more than 55,000 and the United Kingdom at nearly 41,500.

China, where the virus originated late last year, has officially reported 89,616 cases and 4,709 deaths from the illness, though U.S. officials have said they think Beijing has undercounted its total cases and deaths.

Nature's birth control. In 1918-1920 is was the Spanish Flu, in the Middle Ages it was the Black Death.
