SEATTLE, June 25, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — An unintentional error in calculating total deaths for Latin America and the Caribbean resulted in IHME issuing an incorrect total for the region in a June 24 press release and on its website. The reported total of nearly 388,300 excluded Argentina, Chile and Uruguay. The updated total for Latin America and the Caribbean is 438,698 deaths. IHME regrets the error.
The forecasted deaths for individual nations are correct. IHME will continue to update as new data are available.
