CDC predicts COVID-19 will kill another 104,000 Americans in the first 24 days of Biden's presidency with fears the death toll could rise as high as 508,000 by February 13
A new CDC ensemble forecast projects the U.S. coronavirus death toll will be between 465,000 and 508,000 by the week ending February 13
The forecast predicts that between 22,500 and 23,300 deaths from the virus will be reported each week for the next four weeks
If the death toll reaches 508,000, it means more people in the U.S. will have died from COVID-19 than the number of people who live in Atlanta.
It comes just one day after U.S. reported more than 400,000 coronavirus fatalities, on former President Donald Trump's final day in office
