“Over the past 24 hours, the U.S. reported 32,850 new cases of coronavirus and 1,320 new deaths, raising total to 277,621 cases and 7,392 dead”
That’s .59 on the H1N1 Scale for the FLuBros that said it wouldn’t even be *that* bad. In 5 weeks instead of 15 months. We pass the H1N1 (2009 pandemic) death toll in 4 days at current rates, never mind expected growth.
Sigh.
Yeah this is going to be a rough weekend for NYC and other hot spots. Unfortunately the deaths are really starting to pile up. :(
