COVID-19 is no longer among the top five leading causes of death in the U.S, a new report shows.

An analysis by Peterson-Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) Health Systems Tracker found that the virus is the seventh-leading cause of death in the nation through the first half of 2021.

Last year, for comparison, it was the third-leading cause of death, only behind heart disease and cancer, and killed more people than anything else in December 2020, January 2021 and February 2021.

The data signal that while the virus is still circulating and does kill an average of about 300 people a day in America, there is a slow return to normalcy.
