400,000 Americans died fighting in World War II. Covid-19 has killed 14,000 in a little over a month (1940 in the last day alone). While I don't think we will get to a similar number, I wouldn't be surprised if we get to 100,000+.
About 18 million Americans fought in World War II. So far, the US has had 435,000 people infected with Covid-19. We could easily eclipse the 18 million infected mark.

I'd be surprised if we don't surpass 18 million. 60.8 million people caught the swine flu.
