In the United States, there have been 10,474,012 total cases (up from 8,949,332 as of October 29, 2020) resulting in 244,421 deaths (up from 231,033 as of October 29, 2020) — 2.33% of total cases.

Among Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin, there have been a combined total of 1,308,274 cases (up from 780,317 as of October 29, 2020) resulting in 19,369 deaths (up from 15,217 as of October 29, 2020) — 1.48% of total cases (down from 1.95% as of October 29, 2020).
