    If they get those kinds of numbers the major part of them will come from NYC and other hotspots.

    So many other states are currently lagging and they will need their ‘help’ to get in the 100k range and I don’t see that happening in two weeks. But I get the idea they *assume* every state/region will follow the NYC model in their own time.

    If so, that seems to be a pretty simplistic assumption. NYC is a unique place with many factors that simply don’t exist in WV and many other places.

    I guess we’ll see how right our government experts are. There is still plenty of hope because it’s not like they’ve never been wrong before lol.

    And then, what? They start to go back down?

    And we’re supposed to go from 5k-ish deaths to 200k in the space of two weeks? How is that even possible?

    I’ll say this, we have us a prediction, finally.
    A month ago, you were personally spreading misinformation and lies, downplaying the severity because of how bad it makes Trump look.

    And because you live vicariously through him, it makes you look bad too.

    I may be bored but not bored enough to engage a mindless Trump-hater.

    You deliberately and knowingly spread misinformation (and you continue to do so) for the sole purpose of coddling and protecting the poor choice you made to vote for Trump.

    This massive jump is mystifying.
    Unless
    They are throwing worst case out so that when it comes in vastly lower its a spike the ball moment.

    No one said 100K to 250K deaths would happen by April 15 or April 30.

    Even this season, it has to jump from 4K into the tens of thousands to hit seasonal flu total range. And this is all going to happen in two weeks?

    I guess we’ll find out.

    It is WELL below the Mendoza line for certain. Quite possibly batting .000.
