The number of COVID-19 deaths has exceeded one million worldwide on 27 Sep 2020, eight months after the first casualties were reported in Wuhan, China, in January 2020. More than half of the deaths (52%) were in the USA, Brazil, India and Mexico, the four countries with the highest number of deaths. This page shows charts of Deaths Trajectory charts.

Move the mouse cursor over the chart to see the underlying numbers.
Draw a rectangle to select and zoom in on an area of the chart to see details.
Use the buttons in the upper left corner to zoom in/out, pan, reset the axes and download the chart.
Small numbers with decimals between 0 and 1 (e.g. 0.1) are used to make zeroes visible on a logarithmic scale.
Decimals are also added to the y-value of data points that have exactly the same x and y values as other data point(s), in order to distinguish them on the chart.
The data point of each country shows where the country is on the Deaths Trajectory:
- The horizontal axis shows the total number of COVID-19 deaths. This number stays the same when there are no new deaths and goes up when new deaths are reported. It will never go down.
- The vertical axis shows the moving average of New (daily) COVID-19 deaths in the past seven (7) days. This number will go up when an increasing number of new deaths were reported in the past 7 days and will go down when the number of reported deaths has decreased in the past 7 days. When no new deaths have been reported in the past 7 days, this number will go down to zero. As zero values cannot be shown on the logarithmic scale of the vertical axis, zero values are replaced with “0.1” or a lower value e.g. “0.09”. The lowest significant value above zero is “0.14”, which is the daily average of one new death in the past seven days.
A country that is successful in reducing the death rate of the disease will have a low value on the vertical axis, and the data point will be positioned near or at the bottom of the chart.
