Yay, the Covid pandemic is over.

53. I wrote the year beside each figure

You missed the sentence that preceded: In the U.S., there were 350,908 known deaths from Covid-19 on Dec. 31, 2020. So far today, October 29, 2021, there are 412,876 known deaths from Covid-19. Just in the U.S. We've got 2 months to go to 2022.

I am indicating that in agreement with the OP, Covid is not over. In the U.S. there were about 350,908 dead in 2020, without the vaccine being available. That number probably includes, but I don't know if it does, the deaths in Jan. and Feb of 2020.

The second number, 412,876, is how many, roughly, people in the U.S. have died so far in 2021, with the vaccine available. Totaled together they equal the number, or near to, the number you cited.

I agree with the OP that it is still out there, and by breaking the total number of deaths down to show the approximate total of deaths in 2020, when Covid-19 started being monitored and the total numbers of deaths so far in 2021, we can see that indeed, Covid-19 is still out there.

Researchers think that people were getting Covid and dying in late 2019. I don't think the exact number of people who will have died from Covid-19 will ever be known, but it might have been stopped at a handful of people, had some disease preventive protocols in place had been used.

I'm tracking the numbers on worldometer and the Ohio Dept of Health site for my state. Other sites do the analysis of increases in deaths and so on. For what I wanted to say to gab13by13, the numbers I mentioned are what I needed for my comment.
