NY/NJ Total cases 501,370  Deaths 39,350



These 2 states have more cases/deaths than most countries and make up about 30% of all cases and over 40% of deaths in the US.

The U.S. now has more than 1.5 million coronavirus cases and over 92,000 deaths, according to a Johns Hopkins University tracker, far more than numbers reported anywhere else in the world, though there are doubts about the accuracy of China’s figures.

The U.S. of course has a larger population than most countries, with almost 330 million residents. But even on a per-person basis, it ranks near the top in both cases and deaths. It has the 11th most cases per person of any country and ranks 13th in deaths, according to data compiled by The New York Times.
