With 740 new coronavirus deaths in 24 hours, the United States has seen more people die from the pandemic than died in the First World War according to a tally by Johns Hopkins University.

The new figure, counted Tuesday evening, brought the country's total COVID-19 deaths up to 116,854, the tracker from the Baltimore-based university showed. Newsletter sign-up: Get The COVID-19 Brief sent to your inbox

The country's pandemic death toll had already passed that of its soldiers in the Vietnam War in late April. The administration of U.S. President Donald Trump, who has downplayed risks of the virus and instead focused on reviving the economy as he faces a tough re-election battle in November, insists there will be no shutdown of the economy if a second full-blown wave of the epidemic arises.

So ww1 wasn’t that bad after all?

Hmmm the CDC has announced that numbers were inflated largely more lies by governments and mainstream

Yet the Spanish flu killed 50 million people. More deaths will come from our leaders explicit cost with shutting down every aspect of our economy and our lives. Are they worthy of the power we give them? No! They lied about the true extent of this pandemic. LeaderlessLiberals

How many people die each year from the flu? Approximately 70,000. Anyone who died of anything was classed as wu flu. Prob around 40,000 from wu flu. Most of that caused by demo politicans sending wu flu into old age homes.

Yes and China started this, dont forget

Think about it. Thank you Trump...

Uh that's a picture of a ship that only had a handful of patients on it because the medical system held up and nursing homes took in most of the covid patients and killed the rest of the inhabitants.

1st? Really?

Well seeing as regular flu, heart attacks, suicides, cancer deaths all were filed under coronavirus that makes sense.

And will die more if you keep helping to CCP or any other Communists.

FAKE NEWS never stops

How many from the flu?

With 365 M people in US, equally distributed between ages 0 an 100, every day there should be 10K deaths per day. In ten days it will exceed WWI. Think, how slight calculation error, or misattribution of a death cause, can skew statistics.

Aaaaaaand here come the bots and naysayers

More American solders lost their lives to the flu pandemic, than from combat in WW1... One would think a lesson could be learned from that......... Apparently not.

So does the flu, every year.

The average coronavirus victim had a remaining life expectancy of less than five years. The average first world war victim had a remaining life expectancy of more than 50 years. One is obviously much worse than the other.

Smoking cigarettes does that every year.

Very doubtful that this is true. Numbers are all exaggerated

Americans only arrived to the battlefront (summer 1918) with only a few months left in the war (Nov 11 1918). The war started in 1914.... what a dumb comparison.

Democratic hoax

Thanks to leftwing mayors and governors who put recovering covid patients back in LTC homes thus infecting the building. KillerCuomo is one of them.

why do you post the same thing 2 times.

How many never forgets is that? Or because it was caused by a virus does it not make the cut?

What a brilliant scheme, no bullets, no atomic bomb, no radiation, a lab war.

Tweet reported

Math wise 0.0556 % of the population

They were not big participants in ww1 now do Canada ?

CTV, not a peep for 3 weeks of protests, then u are back on Covid? Not a single report of the CDC’s proven inflated numbers. Trying to shutdown the USA again in time for the election eh? How much is your cut if Trump loses you braindead hacks?

Well because the did not actually fight in WW1 . That much 😳

and with this administration and other Republicans Stae leaders sare the covering up the numbers. Would not surprise me a bit.

I’m starting to wonder if the death total in the U.S alone would be 1/4 of what they report 50k sounds realistic at this point if it was as bad as they say

You mean the China virus, the one from China that killed people from around the world.

Is that because they counted people who died of other causes were counted as covid deaths if they had it in their system? Wasn't there something about faulty tests too?

The US didn’t join the war until 1917.

Soak those numbers in wow

hahaha crock of Crap! 😂

Remember when Trump said it would just go away?

Ouch

Mmhmm and they were all replaced in less than one day. We have a population problem, not a virus problem.

What does the 'C' in CTV stand for again? I forget - it has to do something with Trump with all the reporting here.

Now, about the co-morbidities, please. Everybody knows the counting is incredibly suspect.

Twitter: you definitely need to create a different reaction button.

not bad for some 'thing' less harmful than influenza
