Coronavirus Pandemic (many threads merged)

Guys, this **** is a joke.

The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) model cited by the White House Coronavirus Task Force lowered its projections for coronavirus deaths in the U.S. by 25 percent from 81,766 to 60,415 early Wednesday morning.

The IHME model has come under withering criticism for vastly overstating projections of regular and ICU hospital beds needed, but its death projections to date have closely tracked with actual data.

Wednesday’s dramatic reverse in the model’s projection of U.S. deaths was made without a press release from IHME explaining the reasons for the reduction. It marks the second reduction in the model’s U.S. deaths projections since April 1, when it forecast 93,765 U.S. fatalities.

On April 5, the death projections were lowered to 81,766.

Yep - a joke. This isn't the flu but guess what it's a bad flu season in relation to deaths. And now they will try to say, as you can already see, "look the social distancing worked".

I just got back from 3 places, and there were people everywhere. All they did was send people on a 2 - 3 week vacation, oh and they destroyed the economy, over a somewhat bad flu season. Congrats, doomers! I hope you're proud of your accomplishment.

The information was always widely unavailable but people chose to panic.

Good Grief!!

It must be getting better because they are starting to talk about how it is affecting poor people and minorities more.

You’re so undecided. Pick a side and yell at the other two already.
