According to the data, the United States has reached at least 770,691 COVID-19 deaths over the full course of the coronavirus pandemic. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that the total number of deaths involving COVID-19 in 2020 was 385,343, which means that at least 385,348 COVID-19 deaths—15 more than the 2020 total—have been recorded in 2021.
That number is expected to rise in the weeks to come in the remaining year.
