Since the beginning of this year, more than 450,000 people in the United States died after contracting Covid-19, or 57% of all US deaths from disease since the pandemic began.
These year deaths are mostly in patients who are not vaccinated, health experts say.
Death has increased despite progress in caring for covid patients and new treatment options such as monoclonal antibodies.
It took 111 days for US death to jump from 600,000 to 700,000, according to Reuters analysis.

The death rate in the United States is more than three times higher than in neighboring Canada and 11 times more than Japan.
Even when the United States compared to a larger pool than rich countries with access to vaccines, it ranks near the bottom.
Among 38 members of the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), the United States ranks 30th.
Only Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Latvia Colombia, Poland and Slovenia have more Covid-19 death per capita.
New Zealand has at least.

Of the 10 countries that reported the most per capita death in the last 11 months, eight came from the south of the country – Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Mississippi, South Carolina and West Virginia, according to Reuters analysis.
About 60% of the population of the United States have been fully vaccinated by Covid-19, CDC data shows.
The concern of the new variant has encouraged America to line up for the covid-19 vaccine booster dose at a record speed.
Only under one million people per day received a dose of booster one of the three official vaccines last week, the highest level since the regulator gave nodding for additional shots.
“We must act together at this time to overcome the impact of the current case we see, most of which are deltas, and prepare for the possibility of more omicron,” Disease Control Center and Prevention Director Dr.
Rochelle Walensky said on the White House Briefing.
