- The number of coronavirus deaths in the United States recently surpassed 100,000.
- An estimated 41% of those deaths occurred in just two states: New York and New Jersey.
Earlier this week, the number of coronavirus-related deaths in the United States reached 100,000. And though the coronavirus is finally starting to subside in a number of large U.S. cities, the number of cases in states like Arkansas and West Virginia is starting to spike. This, coupled with the fact that many states are planning to reopen over the next few days and weeks, has led some to believe that a second wave of the coronavirus may be on its way.
What’s interesting, though perhaps not surprising, is that an estimated 41% of all coronavirus deaths in the United States occurred in New York or New Jersey. The data, which comes from Johns Hopkins University, notes that the two states have reported 29,350 and 11,339 deaths, respectively.
