    60% higher than yesterday.

    So 300 deaths tomorrow and total deaths hit 1,000?

    I’ll take the over.


    Thanks for confirming what you've been hoping for all along.
    I guess you Covid deniers are just better people.
    Yeah- COVID denier. Nailed me on that one. I don't think you're going to make detective.
    So you agree with my math.
    I agree with the board you have a goulish hope the death rate hits 1,000 sooner rather than later,

    I have an ability to look at the numbers and see reality. It’s a recognition, not a “hope”. This isn’t quite the nothing burger or joke some of your pals said it was. I admit to some grim pleasure in seeing their hubris flung back in their faces.

    Nothings changed with me.

    Will the death total warrant the hysteria? If the numbers play out to just a bad flu season then absolutely not.

    If at the end of this we're looking at massive fatalities outside the norm then take a lap hands raised.

    The Coronavirus isn’t replacing the flu. We still have the flu also. A 100% increase in the number of seasonal, killer viruses isn’t the minor matter you appear to believe it is.

    In my completely unscientific survey of public sentiment and opinion-shapers, there's been a shift in the last day toward let's get working again.

    If the numbers end up being a bad flu season than the draconian measures taken to "flatten the curve" probably saved our ass.

    My 90 year old Grandma caught a fever last week and passed in her sleep two days later. She lived a great life, but dementia and other health complications had her teetering for awhile.

    Corona virus may very well be the closer to a lot of ailments, but saying these deaths are 100% in addition to is extremely naive.

    If we have enough data to make sounds decisions and the hospitals aren't being overwhelmed then this should be the case.
    I'm not making an advisability argument, only observation of sentiment. For example, you've got Thomas Friedman in NYT opinion yesterday asking if the cure is worse.
