America's Covid-19 Deaths Likely to Exceed 9/11's Death Toll Every Day, For Two Months

On Wednesday one political blog posted a list of the 10 deadliest days in American history. That Wednesday turned out to be the fifth deadliest day in American history, with the next day becoming the fourth deadliest day, behind only two Civil War battles and a hurricane that struck in the year 1900.

Here's a rough update of that list (using figures posted daily by The Covid Tracking Project):

1. Galveston Hurricane (in 1900) — 8,000
2. Battle of Antietam (1862) — 3,675
3. Battle of Gettysburg (1863) — 3,155
4. This Thursday - 3,067
5. This Wednesday - 3,054
6. September 11 (2001) — 2,977
7. Last Thursday — 2,879
8. Last Wednesday — 2,804
9. This Friday - 2,749
10. This Tuesday - 2,622
11. Last Friday — 2,607
12. Last Tuesday — 2,597
13. Today - 2,477
14. Last Saturday - 2,445
15. Pearl Harbor (1941) — 2,403
