Awaiting the latest pronouncements from the good doctors.

As nearly half of U.S. states begin to ease restrictions that were put in place to slow the spread of the coronavirus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is quietly projecting a stark rise in the number of new cases of the virus and deaths from it over the next month.
Modeling from the CDC, incorporated into a chart prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and circulated within the administration, was obtained by the New York Times. It projects 200,000 new daily cases of the coronavirus by the end of May and 3,000 daily deaths in the U.S. At present, approximately 25,000 new cases are reported each day, with roughly 1,750 deaths.
Without disputing the accuracy of the modeling used by the CDC, the White House quickly distanced itself from the projections.
“This data is not reflective of any of the modeling done by the task force or data that the task force has analyzed,” White House deputy press secretary Judd Deere said in a Monday statement. “The president’s phased guidelines to open up America again are a scientific-driven approach that the top health and infectious disease experts in the federal government agreed with.”

The yahoo comments are good here and pretty much skeptical of what team Fauxi-Scarf have to say.
The last thing I need is advice from the Centers for Disease Collaboration.
Gee. more models.
Bull pucky.
I have spoken.
Not saying they are wrong, but they haven’t been right yet.
Sad but unavoidable cost of doing business. We can’t stay shut down forever. People need to get used to the idea that more people are going to die. That’s just how it is.
LOL!
NO IT DOESN’T!
Here it is:

“ As more states open death rises” A yahoo/CDC feed the hysteria headline and a BS correlation
Bring it. Let’s just get it over with. I’ve made my peace. I’m ready to die.
*SNORT*
These dopes will milk this for all it’s worth. I cannot WAIT until we all go into Lock Down Mode when the first SNEEZE is heard next Fall when Flu Season hits.
This is going to be PROVEN to be the biggest HOAX since 0bama.
Yes, Yes, Pearl Clutchers - keep those most in danger safe, but I was in a major retail home improvement store today and they would NOT let us in without a mask. My DAD is being held captive in a Nursing Home where most DEATHS have been occurring! Who is safer? HIM or ME?
LIBERATE WISCONSIN!
Yeah, and the report doesn’t say any of that.
But they count on people not reading it themselves.
If anything is going to trigger a greater outbreak, it is the harm that’s been done to the immune system by being in captivity for the past 50 days.
Awaiting the latest pronouncements from the good doctors.
The incentives to over-count are pretty high.
200,000 new cases per day?
How many people of already had it in America? Total, even asymptomatic?
How many currently have it?
How many are left to be able to catch?
I refuse to wear a mask, I ain't getting no damn Gates' vaccine, and if I die, I die.
200,000 daily cases? That’s assuming that we will return to our pre-pandemic habits in early March. That will not be the case.
Response to realists like ourselves:
The highly political CDC can be relied upon to stoke up panic and hysteria whenever the Democratic Party and their media stooges need it. Obama managed to politicise every single Fed government agency.
Nothing new here. Move along.
