It won't go up much further folks. It's all under control. How about posting another one of your great graphs to make your point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 60 yr old that supported the system,paid his taxes has earned his health care Either way tough decision for medical to play god with who lives Even if everyone stayed inside We have homeless roaming the streets,sharing cigarettes,joints etc You cant lock all them in a house I don't see how it will end soon The effort isn't about ending the pandemic. It is about 'flattening the curve' which lessons the # of infections. That way, it provides time to recharge the healthcare systems and essential services. There will likely be several waves of infection increases, but hopefully each time it will be fewer and the flattening of the curve procedures will be less invasive. Eventually there will be a vaccination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These projections are by people who do it for a living. And the key point is that unfortunately these deaths will occur regardless because there is no cure. The key point is do you want all those right now in a very short period or having it spread out. All the measures happening right now are to stop everything at once. For studying the US it is probably better to look state by state rather than the whole picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Sweeping new federal recommendations announced on Monday for Americans to sharply limit their activities appeared to draw on a dire scientific report warning that, without action by the government and individuals to slow the spread of coronavirus and suppress new cases, 2.2 million people in the United States could die." https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/16/us/coronavirus-fatality-rate-white-house.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
