The US will exceed 250,000 Covid deaths this week. The only thing deadlier in the US is Cancer and Heart Disease.
While in Canada, the 11,000 that have died to COVID would make it the 6th deadliest thing. Strokes, Chronic Respiratory Diseases and Accidents usually kill more people than COVID has.
Globally, COVID-19 is seeing a resurgence across the board, but in countries that have taken more co-ordinated precautionary steps, the lives lost can be greatly diminished.

Deaths when compared to caseload. So when you have 1/5 of the Global cases, it's not something to brag about.
When you evaluate Deaths per capita, it's more than double Canada.
Spain, Belgium and the UK are the only developed nations with a higher death rate per capita.
And that doesn't tell the whole story because most countries had their deaths early in the pandemic. Treatment and the age of those who get the disease has lowered it, across the board.
The US is still regularly seeing more than 1,000 deaths a day. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a day or two with 2,000 deaths this week.

7,700 Americans died per day...before COVID.

Similar to other countries, many people die every day non-covid related. But the media doesn’t run daily tabulations.
