The U.S. surpassed 20 million total confirmed COVID-19 cases on New Year’s Day, starting 2021 off with a grim milestone, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.
The U.S.’s coronavirus case count reached 20 million cases about midday on Friday, with the last 1 million cases coming in just five days and the last 3 million cases in slightly more than two weeks.
The 20 million case mark comes as the U.S. nears 350,000 COVID-19-related fatalities, about 19 percent of the world’s more than 1.8 million deaths.
The U.S. has recorded more cases than any country, almost double India’s total cases and nearly a quarter of the world’s more than 83 million confirmed cases.
