MEXICO CITY (AP) The global death toll from COVID-19 topped 2 million Friday, crossing the threshold amid a vaccine rollout so immense but so uneven that in some countries there is real hope of vanquishing the outbreak, while in other, less-developed parts of the world, it seems a far-off dream.

It is roughly equivalent to the Cleveland metropolitan area or the entire state of Nebraska.
