In 2020, COVID-19 deaths accounted for 62% of all duty-related law enforcement officer deaths.
obtained from the National Law Enforcement Officer Memorial Fund database for the year 2020, COVID-19 deaths accounted for 62% of the 295 duty-related law enforcement officer deaths.
The database contained deaths designated as those caused by incidents that occurred while in the line of duty. "These findings provide police organizations with information needed to understand the risk of death among officers during the COVID-19 pandemic and to make informed decisions about future preparedness strategies," the study’s authors wrote.
One of the study's limitations was its uncertainty of a definitive assessment that the viral infection was acquired specifically through their job.
