What they were saying back in March
The worst-case scenario would be between 1.6 million and 2.2 million deaths, White House Coronavirus Task Force Coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx said during an NBC News interview back in March, during the early days of the pandemic. These projections would result from doing “nothing” to combat the virus, she said.
“If we do things together, well, almost perfectly, we could get in the range of 100,000 to 200,000 fatalities,” Birx continued. In other words, with a near-perfect pandemic response, the number of deaths from the Wuhan virus could reach almost as many as have been reported to date.

Sorry, I have to admit that I don't follow most of the China virus threads that closely. Watching Dazzler make an ass out of himself only has so much appeal for me.doogie said:It almost as if this topic was active yesterday

I'll fall back on the fact that we're a nation of 331 million people and that nearly 3 million people die in this country every year. We're all going to die someday Dazzler, I don't believe in destroying our economy in order to stop the inevitable just because I hate Trump. Of the people who are dying from Covid most of them are well past their sell by date. Sad but true.HHusky said:And when we reach 400,000 deaths, what will you fall back on?
