Question:  So I’ve read that 1/1000 Americans has died from COVID.   Can we get a new breakdown of the ages of those that have died?

Answer: According to the CDC, as of yesterday a total of 349,246 individuals have died of COVID in the US.  With the overall US population at 331 million, the estimate you read is correct– to date, 0.1% or 1 of every 1,000 of us has succumbed to COVID.  You can find basic demographics related to cases and deaths at CDC’s COVID Data Tracker, which I’ve used to pull the deaths by age data included in Figure 1 below.  Deaths increase with age; no age group has been spared; deaths among children are rare.

Note: data presented below are for 249K deaths, and are about 6 weeks behind due to reporting lags.
