New study says US COVID-19 death toll is actually 900,000 CNET 1 day ago © Provided by CNET Angela Weiss/Getty Images In a study published Friday, researchers at the University of Washington Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation estimate that the number of deaths caused by COVID-19 is almost double the official number in the US and more than twice as high as the reported worldwide tally. Using data from May 3, 2021, the report says the number of reported COVID-19 deaths in the US was 574,043. The authors estimate that the number was actually much higher, at 905,289 deaths. The researchers also said that COVID-19 deaths are significantly underreported in other countries as well, bringing the global total to about 6.9 million, more than double the official estimate. For instance, in Russia, the total reported death toll is 109,334, but the researchers estimate that the actual figure is more than five times higher, at 593,610.
