Your link - Deborah Birx, coordinator of the White House coronavirus response, said earlier Sunday that their projections have always estimated between 100,000 and 240,000 people could die even with mitigation measures in place.

How many will die now that the states are opening up with no mitigation measures? We all know that 6 ft. social distancing is a joke and a cough can travel 3 grocery aisles and not many will wear a mask or gloves or couldn't care less.

“How many will die now that the states are opening up”

The whole purpose of the stay at home, social distancing and mask wearing was to give our system a chance to get ready when it does happens. It was to buy the US time to develop treatments and to get the equipment/material in place.

Hard for people to take it serious when they do not trust the media reporting anymore. The media and the democrats have yelled wolf so much people do not believe them on the real threat.

The only way people will practice social distancing and start wearing a mask is only if they know someone they care about die.

If the projections are correct and the hot weather does not slow it down, they will know soon then start caring.

Unfortunately, a lot more than needed to. Use the lull in the storm to increase your preps and get ready as best as possible for when the SHTF big time.

We are heading to 4K dead a day. Americans have decided to accept that. For some reason they think it won’t happen to them or people they love but it will.
Sad days are ahead. The best I can do is wear a mask, gloves and keep my distance. The rest is in Gods hands.
