An analysis, tracking the extensive reach of COVID-19 loss of kin with a bereavement multiplier, published by the, estimates that 6.3 million family members may be grieving the loss of a loved one due to the virus. When President Joe Biden took office in January, the U.S. death toll from COVID-19 had swelled to 400,000, and just a month later half a million Americans had died. By June, it was 600,000 Americans."A year and half ago, the idea of hitting 700,000 coronavirus deaths was completely unimaginable.
"Heading into the winter months, we can significantly delay the next grim milestone if more people, especially those at high risk for severe illness, choose to get vaccinated," said Ajay Sethi, an epidemiologist and associate professor of population health sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
