Coronavirus Growth in Western Countries: June 11 Update

Here’s the coronavirus death toll through June 11. Canada’s downturn is starting to look real and Mexico is recovering a bit from its spike of a few days ago. Aside from Argentina and Mexico, everyone else continues to drift toward zero.

NOTE: The Argentina chart has been incorrect for the past few days. When I swapped in Argentina I forgot to update the population figure, so the deaths per million was artificially low. It’s now been corrected. Thanks to reader RJ for pointing this out.

The raw data from Johns Hopkins is here. The Public Health Agency of Sweden is here.

ONE MORE QUICK THING:

Or at least we hope. It’s fall fundraising time, and we’re trying to raise $250,000 to help fund Mother Jones’ journalism during a shorter than normal three-week push.

If you’re reading this, a fundraising pitch at the bottom of an article, you must find our team’s reporting valuable and we hope you’ll consider supporting it with a donation of any amount right now if you can.

It’s really that simple. But if you’d like to read a bit more, our membership lead, Brian Hiatt, has a post for you highlighting some of our newsroom's impressive, impactful work of late—including two big investigations in just one day and covering voting rights the way it needs to be done—that we hope you'll agree is worth supporting.
