JAKARTA - United States President Donald Trump has said loudly that the death toll of its citizens due to coronavirus will not exceed 100,000. But that hope was dashed. The data shows that 100,418 thousand people have died from COVID-19 in the US.
Data from Johns Hopkins University seen, Thursday, May 28, the US has passed 100,000 deaths in the COVID-19 in less than four months. Compare this with the total population of the earth who died from COVID-19, reaching more than 355 thousand people. That means the US 'accounts for' about 30 percent of deaths.
The first positive case reported in the country occurred on January 21. To be precise, a citizen living in Washington State.
Until now, the most positive cases are still around the Chicago, Los Angeles and suburban Washington DC areas. During the height of this crisis, the number of deaths each day reached hundreds. Hospitals were overwhelmed and temporary morgues were built outside health facilities.
Reporting from the BBC, the death toll in the US became the highest in the world in early April. And it has continued to rise dramatically ever since.
When the first cases of infection occurred in the US, Trump still believed that the situation in his country was under control. Going back and forth, she made 'cocky' statements that everything, "will be all right." Then he predicted that the death rate would be around 60 thousand.
It took only four months to destroy Trump's confidence. The virus has spread in all 50 states. Infects 1.6 million population in US.
The BBC then compared the death toll in the US from the coronavirus to the combined death toll from the wars in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan - a total of 44 years -. As a result, the number of lives lost is almost the same as the number of Americans who have now lost their lives to the corona virus in just four months in America.
Korean War (1950-1953): 36,500
Vietnam War (1961-1975): 58,000 Iraq War (2003-2011): 4,500 Afghanistan (2001-present): 2,000 Covid-19 (As of today): 100,418
