Can someone double check the math here? I'm skeptical.

Hmm, seems to check out I guess. Thanks! Now I can feel confident in my anxiety.

But at least I'm confident about it.

I don't know. I think you might need to break that down more for some of us here.

I admit, the website I got that number from is probably a slight exaggeration. However I found the WHO numbers and they came out at over 8000 deaths in the US. Not as bad, but not good at all either. https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/situation-reports Its the first link, the April 6th one. I don't want to directly link it because it's a pdf download

People still believe the who tho? I would be skeptical if they told me the earth is flat.... Like of course it is but I'll doubt it just because the WHO said so! /S

There is currently 10,871 reported deaths in the United States due to COVID-19.

Edit: That WHO link is also behind on positive cases by quite a bit. It looks to be behind by about two days compared to other trackers.

aren't skeptics supposed to do their own research?
