The current FT count of confirmed deaths in the U.S. is 387 (which includes the 3 deaths abroad). Puerto Rico has reported 10 confirmed deaths, but has an additional 24 suspected deaths under investigation. County DOHs in California have been updating their numbers and there have been at least 10 new deaths reported in 3 counties today with most of California counties and the State DOH still to provide updates.
In addition, despite significant efforts to get updated information from NYC (where the last update on 7/7 reported 47 deaths), no new deaths have been reported for the past 3 weeks. A NYS DOH official told me this week that the State's only source of information from NYC is the City's website. Hmmm.
All in all, I think we can safely say that we'll be well past the 400 mark by the end of the week.
