The U.S. Leads the World in Confirmed Coronavirus Cases as Nationwide Death Toll Tops 10,000

The United States has the highest number of confirmed coronavirus cases out of the at least 1,359,398 worldwide, according to a virus tracker from researchers at Johns Hopkins University as of 8:00 a.m. E.T. Tuesday, April 7.

The United States now has at least 368,449 confirmed cases and at least 10,993 confirmed deaths, per the tracker. The U.S. has at least an additional 200,000 reported cases compared to other countries with large COVID-19 outbreaks, such as Italy, Spain and China. There have been at least 75,973 confirmed deaths worldwide.

New York has been the epicenter of the outbreak in the U.S.. As of Tuesday morning it had at least 131,830 confirmed cases of the virus, around 90,000 more than the next highest state, New Jersey, which has at least 41,090 cases.

The number of cases across the U.S. has rapidly upticked over the past week. On top of New York and New Jersey, Michigan, California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Florida, Pennsylvania and Illinois all have over 10,000 cases. But infections are scattered across all 50 U.S. states (in addition to Washington D.C..) West Virginia was the last U.S. state to report a confirmed case of COVID-19.

U.S. cases also include Americans evacuated from the virus-stricken Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japan, where nearly 700 passengers and crew were diagnosed with the virus. Another cruise ship, the Grand Princess—which had been stuck off the coast of California over concerns several passengers could have the virus—docked in Oakland, Calif., on March 9.

Federal officials have noted that the American public should prepare for the number of cases to continue to increase. On Monday, Surgeon General Jerome Adams said the upcoming week may be the “toughest week” of the pandemic as the number of deaths rises. “This is going to be our Pearl Harbor moment, our 9/11 moment. Only it’s not going to be localized, it’s going to be happening all over the country,” Adams said. The U.S. has not yet reached its apex—the point at which the rate of death and infections decreases.

The White House has projected that even with social distancing measures, 100,000 to 240,000 Americans could die from the virus.

All numbers are from the Johns Hopkins University Center for Systems Science and Engineering, unless otherwise specified, and are accurate as of 8 a.m. E.T. on April 7.

Here’s what to know about COVID-19 cases in the U.S.

New York

131,830 cases; 4,758 deaths

New York has become the epicenter of the virus in the United States. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has publicly demanded the federal government help provide crucial medical equipment like ventilators and personal protective equipment, which are in short supply across the country. On Sunday and Monday, the state reported fewer deaths than the day before, suggesting that the virus’s impact on the state might finally be beginning to ease.

“If we are plateauing, we are plateauing at a very high level,” Cuomo said on Monday. “And there is tremendous stress on the health care system.”

Last month, New York ordered gyms, movie theaters and casinos to close and banned crowds larger than 50. Grocery stores have remained open and restaurants and bars have operated takeout and delivery services. The actions were taken in coordination with the governors of New Jersey and Connecticut.

The New York City Public School System — the largest in the nation — temporarily shut down as of Monday, March 16. On March 7, Cuomo declared a state of emergency.
