The coronavirus death-forecast model that apparently convinced President Trump and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to shift to a policy featuring unprecedented lockdowns of the healthy "could go down in history as the most devastating software mistake of all time, in terms of economic costs and lives lost."
That's according to two software company executives writing in the Daily Telegraph newspaper of London.
David Richards, CEO of the British-American software firm WANdisco, and Konstantin Boudnik, the company's vice president of open source development, were referring to the Imperial College of London report March 16 forecasting 2.2 million deaths in the United States and 500,000 in Britain from the coronavirus.
However, just 10 days later, the lead author of the report, Neil Ferguson, told a drastically different story when he testified under oath to a British parliamentary committee.

Bozo the Modeler turned it over to H1B subcontractors apparently.
Niel Ferguson actually has a HISTORY of sky high death estimates.
His projections led to millions of British livestock killed due to hoof and mouth disease projections. And it turned out inspectors were spreading it through unsterilized shoes.
He predicted up to fifty thousand dead from mad cow disease.

He predicted up to 200 million dead from bird flu. Note that’s worse than the Wuhan virus and they still didn’t lock everything down.

The stench of Soros?
Meanwhile, in Climatelandia, all models are conclusive that climate change “could” kill millions.
After decades of dummied-down education in the US and elsewhere, how can anyone expect that these experts know a damn thing?
I mean, the ONLY thing any of them is expert at is getting public funds for their BS research to prop up their BS careers in the many BS journals, where their BS colleagues kiss their a*&es and grovel at their feet every time their mug appears in a NOVA special or publication!!! Talk about a cult of personality!!
Maybe the dictatorial power hungry Dem Governors should heed notice.
Next up: Masks cause more illness than they protect against.
And the stench of the fake news media. The drumbeat to get Trump was incessant and vicious. Most of us don’t blame him because he was damned if there was no closure and damned if he did closure. Couldn’t win either way, but if it pulls out it will be a win.
The numbers were wrong?
say it isn't so!!!
I have some climate change charts to sell ya.
It's all part of a global power grab, and related to the AGW hoaxters' global power grab.
And then one day, they came and they said, You have to close it. I said, You got to be These people right here, they said you have to They came into my office into the Oval Office, and they said, We have to close the economy. I said, Lets explain this. Explain this to me. The greatest ever in history and we had to close it.
If the paper is thick enough, I can line the bottom of my crow's cage.
They can also be used as IQ tests.
The ones who drool in glee fail.
Fauxi and Birx used fraudulent Imperial College model to urge shut down
Unfortunately, some will confuse the crackpot with the excellent Welsh historian Niall Ferguson.
Software mistake? GIGO.
Well outside of those Climate Change models.
So what you’re saying is... If the scientist came forward to world leaders and said this virus will kill 0.64% of the people who get infected, that they would have stayed open... Too late.
The economies of world have been devastated and they should round up whomever it was who recommended these lock downs and put them on trial for crimes against humanity. Millions will starve and die because of this nonsense and those deaths will be much slower and more painful than any of these hundreds of thousands or so covid-19 deaths.
