The U.S. once again crossed a somber COVID threshold much faster than any country in the world. Less than a year after the coronavirus outbreak was declared a pandemic, the U.S. recorded its 500,000th death Monday, according to the Johns Hopkins University dashboard. That’s more than twice the COVID-19 fatalities registered in Brazil, which ranks second on the list. President Joe Biden commemorated the half-a-million lives lost at a Monday evening ceremony in the White House, drawing on his own experience with heartbreak to personalize the unfathomable tragedy while exhorting Americans to wear masks and take other steps to prevent spread of the virus. He pointed out the death toll from the pandemic is higher than  the number of U.S. service members killed in battle during World War I, World War II and the Vietnam War combined.
