The COVID-19 pandemic has spread so rapidly since the first U.S. case was reported January 20 that it’s now the third-leading cause of death in the country, Dr. Thomas Frieden, former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told CNN.
“Covid is now the No. 3 cause of death in the US ― ahead of accidents, injuries, lung disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and many, many other causes,” Frieden said.
The CDC says heart disease and cancer are the first and second leading causes of death.
