Am I reading this correctly? You are projecting close to 5 Billion cases by the end of the next 12 months?
Prayers.
Only if the current Daily Transmission Rate holds that long and if the current reported numbers represent 75% of the true numbers. There are many factors that could increase (bad) or decrease (good) that rate.
In fact, I do not believe it will pan out that badly. There are many, many, things that will work together to lower the DTR. And a small change in the DTR can have a huge effect on the projections. But this is presented as a warning to those who are pooh-poohing the issue. The math doesn't lie.
And I'm glad that you picked up on the key word: projecting, not predicting.
