More than a quarter-million Americans have died from complications of COVID-19, the disease caused by a coronavirus that is tearing massive holes in states across the nation, as health experts warn the death toll could double in the coming months.

NBC News reported the death toll crossed the 250,000 mark on Wednesday. Other counts maintained by Johns Hopkins University and The New York Times were slightly below that figure.

The United States continues to be the epicenter of the pandemic, accounting for a hugely disproportionate share of cases and deaths even as the virus begins spreading more widely in European countries.

Virtually every indicator in the U.S. is flashing bright red alarms: The country has recorded more than 100,000 new cases on every day since the Nov. 3 election. More than 73,000 Americans are being treated in hospitals, an all-time high. Of those, 14,000 are in intensive care units. The number of tests conducted on a given day is rising, but so too is the percentage of those tests that come back positive, a sign that the virus is spreading faster than testing is expanding.

  1. Really? Let’s hear a name of 1 person in the world who died from this hoax virus and didn’t have an existing illness and wasn’t murdered in the hospital or old-age home. In fact, this year there were fewer deaths (from after the hospitals’ murdering spree) than other years as can be confirmed by the Chevra Kadisha and doctors. Google it.

    Secondly, let them first explain why there were no influenza this year, no pneumonia, no bronchitis, no respiratory illness and no sickness in the world other than this crony virus?

    Thirdly, since when has this bogus virus turned into a disease?
