More than 2,000 Americans are predicted to die of COVID-19 on April 12, according to a model by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME).
It's expected to be the most deaths in one day during the novel coronavirus pandemic in the United States, at least through August, although public health officials have raised the possibility of a second wave later this year.
If IHME estimates are correct, the day before will have marked the peak use of hospital resources against the coronavirus, including more than 94,000 beds, about 19,500 ICU beds and at least 16,500 invasive ventilators.
The estimates are based on data from local and national governments, hospital networks like the University of Washington, the American Hospital Association, the World Health Organization (WHO) and a range of other sources. The model also estimates peak dates for both hospital resource use and deaths in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
However, the projection assumes full social distancing observed through May 2020. If, in practice, Americans deviate from established social distancing measures or restrictions are let up before May, the projection will likely change.
As of April 10, the IHME predicts a total of 60,415 COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. by August 4.
I have peaked.
Pardon the annoying gif. Just couldn't help myself.
Maybe the powers that be aren’t happy with lower amounts of money to confiscate?
Can someone please tell THE HILL that WorldoMeters can
verify over 2,000 people in the U. S. have died today.
As of 17:57 the count was 2,043.

“As of April 10, the IHME predicts a total of 60,415 COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. by August 4.”
Long forgotten is the 100,000 NEW deaths prediction over the next two weeks made by Dr Doom on 3/30/20 if we stay vigilant and adhere to the guidelines. But Dr Doom still polls much higher than Trump in all the polls on the trust question.
IHME = Bill Gates’ fear-mongering idiots
these turkeys have zero credibility after getting it wrong big-time, when they were relied-upon to get it right ...
they were the ones who effectively put the US on lockdown, with their irresponsible claims of 2 million dead (or whatever it was)
If you check the deaths chart at https://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america, I think IHME may still be padding the numbers - showing the curve much slower to fall than it was to rise. That’s not what they’re showing for Spain or Italy.
Good!
I can’t think of even one of the models that has been remotely close to anything near the numbers on the ground.
If we continue the shutdown and fail to get the spring planting done, far more than 60,000 people will die, come next winter.
God is in charge of life and death, not government computer models.
Data published the end of march projected peak deaths for Colorado on the 16th will be 2,800.
The current number of TOTAL deaths is 250, with 24 today.
24 per day going to 2,800 PER DAY in the next 6 days?
how many have died of pneumonia today?...seasonal flu?.....gee nobody knows and nobody cares......
The rest of the country seems to have peaked already, but count on NY state and NJ to keep to come in with the standard 1,000 fatalities between them.
That 2,800 per day is nationally.

Their article shows 2011 but is not being updated every second. Feel free to notify them that you are the source for updated info.
Bill Gates, the next power-mad Soros, should be sued for his pre-planned plot to induce this panic that has ruined peoples’ lives. We are a free people, not meant to be yolked as mules to pull the loads of the tech billionaires.
