WHERE WE STAND

As of Monday evening, L.A. County had at least 2,386 deaths and 56,017 confirmed cases of coronavirus.

The U.S. is among many countries experiencing large-scale epidemics, although the toll here has now led the world for weeks. The map above shows cumulative confirmed cases, deaths and recoveries and is updated in near real-time throughout the day. Zoom out to see more of the world.

Below are the recent totals for the United States and the nine other countries reporting the most confirmed cases of COVID-19.

These numbers are changing rapidly and experts have warned that confirmed cases are far under the actual total of infected individuals. For more detail check the full tracker, which includes death tolls and projections of cases on the Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering site. Engineers there are collecting data from:

• World Health Organization
• U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
• European Center for Disease Prevention and Control
• National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China
• Local media reports, local health departments, and the DXY

IN CALIFORNIA

Last month, Newsom announced a framework of six parameters he says it will take to reopen the state's economy. L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti announced a similar five-pillar plan, but health officials have advised that some form of our safer at home orders will extend into the summer.

But certain restrictions are being lifted. We have extensive guidance on reopening in our No-Panic Guide to all the changing rules.

More information on the county's recovery plan also can be found on its website.

Statewide, our friends on the L.A. Times data desk are tracking cases in California by surveying "numbers released by the dozens of local health agencies across the state." As of about 6:50 p.m. Monday, the newspaper is reporting California has:

• 114,732 confirmed cases
• 4,218 deaths

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AT A GLANCE

Latest updates as of Monday evening, June 1:

LA COUNTY

• 56,017 cases
• 2,386 deaths

*NOTE: L.A. County's total cases and deaths do not always include the latest numbers from Long Beach and Pasadena. Our numbers reflect the best available information at this time.

L.A. County public health officials are now providing a demographic breakdown of the deaths so far. [We have added overall demographic estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau for comparison.]

Among those who have died in L.A. County, 93% had underlying health conditions. Information about race and ethnicity is available for 99% of people who have died:

• 12% African American [9% of county residents]
• 17% Asian [15.4% of county residents]
• 40% Latino / Latina [48.6% of county residents]
• 29% White [26.1% of county residents]
• 1% Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander [0.4% of county residents]
• 1% identified as belonging to a different race or ethnicity

According to U.S. Census data, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders make up less than half a percent of L.A. County residents. But the population's rates of confirmed cases and deaths from COVID-19 are "extremely high," L.A. County Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer has said. (LAist reporter Josie Huang took a closer look at why.)

FLATTEN THE CURVE

As new cases continue to be confirmed, Californians are continuing to be under "safer at home" and "social distancing" orders. State and county officials have ordered the vast majority of Californians to strictly limit interactions with other people, wash hands frequently, and stay 6 feet away from others.

Remember, the goal of social distancing is to "flatten the curve" of COVID-19's spread.
