Clueless Joe: Someone Should Tell Biden That More Americans Died Of COVID Under His Administration

The United States has met one million COVID-19 deaths, the White House announced Thursday, the first nation to reach the harsh count during the pandemic that has overwhelmed life for the past two years.

President Joe Biden paid his respects to the families of the one million Americans, telling grieving relatives that he knows “the pain of that black hole in your heart.”

The one million mark is a dark reminder of the increasing grief and loss caused by the pandemic even as the threat posed by the virus wanes in the minds of many people. It represents about one death for every 327 Americans or more than the entire population of San Francisco or Seattle

According to some popular pandemic counters, like ones issued by Johns Hopkins University and the New York Times, America is still a few thousand deaths away from one million. Still, it will likely reach the mark in the coming days. This is because different organizations use different standards to gather record data, leading to few other figures. v

The mark is also reached as the virus has a resurgence, with both cases and deaths trending upwards once again after around three straight months of rapidly declining after the winter Omicron surge. The U.S. is recording 86,834 cases a day, a 36 percent jump over the past week. Deaths from the virus have fallen 33 percent, to 381 per day.

In the months that followed, the deadly virus spread like wildfire, finding fertile ground in densely populated urban areas such as New York City and reaching every corner of the country.
