    The 100,000 American deaths figure was surpassed today.

    I first extrapolated that it would occur on the 20th, and was glad I was wrong.

    A more updated extrapolation suggested it would occur on the 27th or 28th.

    I was wrong again, but in the opposite direction.

    I tried to anticipate a more flattened curve for the latest extrapolation, but the curve is not flattening out as much as I estimated.

    And the worst thing is I don't see it slowing down much.

    I see no reason to think this won't continue racking up more deaths.

    We will see 110,000, 120,000 and more.

    We continue to see 20K new cases each day, and the number of serious or critical cases continues to remain above 17,000.

    And remember that there are plenty of people who recover from this. Nearly a 1/2 million Americans have recovered, (468K.)

    Once someone recovers, they no longer test positive for the virus. They no longer count in the Active Cases figure.

    The number of Active Cases needs to peak out at some point, and begin falling.

    That's the peak we are looking for.

    But we are not there yet.

    Still watching for that peak.

    Talking numbers...

    What are they telling us?

    Interesting figures to note from yesterday:

    1. We passed 100,000 deaths.

    2. We are rapidly closing in on 1/2 million who have had the disease and recovered.

    3. We passed 300 deaths per million Americans.

    4. Spain UK, Italy and France still have more deaths per million than the USA, nearly all over 500.

    5. Brazil had almost as many New Cases as the USA, 15.6K vs 19K, but has very little testing.

    6. The USA leads in total cases, followed by Brazil and Russia. All with right wing leaders who outright deny facts.

    How can we continue to have 20K New Cases each day and pretend that it's all over, that we can crank up the economy full steam again?

    I am amazed at all the 'covidiots' who have completely dropped social distancing, mask-wearing, etc. How unpatriotic!

    That is like BEGGING for a second wave.

    They want to pretend it is all over as their actions ensure it's resurgence.

    Mind-boggling.

    It’s taken a minute, but people are waking up to the fact deaths and hospitalizations matter more than case counts.

    Also, you can only say ‘just wait two weeks’ so many times and people will start to ignore that.

    So you might want to prepare yourself lol.

    Hello Darth,

    That is a false theory. The immediate question would have to be: "Just where do people think deaths and hospitalizations COME FROM???"

    If not from case counts, then just WHERE? Out of thin air?

    It's nothing but purposeful blindness to reality. Dropping the fight against COVID is asking for a resurgence. You walk away from your defense and you can expect an offense from the enemy.

    What? Do you think the war against COVID is OVER???

    NO!!! It still RAGES.

    Such foolishness. That is as dumb as declaring the fight against ISIS over and pulling out of Syria before the job is done.

    It is amazing how unpatriotic and selfish some are.

    I never said that. THAT was what the president said. You should KNOW better than to believe liar Donald.

    An extrapolation just performed indicates the USA will reach 2 million Total Cases by June 17th.

    Now, here's some good news.

    The USA is close to a 1/2 million recovered cases.

    Currently 497,966 Americans have recovered from COVID-19.

    The source of the virus from China is China. They lied about the source and their number of fatalities. They would not share data with our health professionals that might have mitigated their virus from China. They nailed shut the doors of those with the virus from China They did not stop flights out of China and the virus from China spread around the world.

    China must be held accountable for the hundreds of thousands of deaths and the economic loss around the world.

    Count on the far left loon apologists to defend China and falsely blame it on our great president whose closure of flights from China saved countless lives.

    The president is following the advice of the health professionals and the states are opening their economies following the guidelines.

    Bad day for new cases yesterday.

    25K New Cases.

    Is that because of all the people who are blowing off social distancing measures?

    Is it because things are opening up too quickly?

    It's not like the disease just 'miraculously went away.'
