Trump administration projecting 3K daily coronavirus deaths by June
The Hill ^ | 4 May 2020 | By Brett Samuels

The Trump administration is projecting that the United States could see up to 3,000 deaths per day from the coronavirus by June 1, a person familiar with internal documents confirmed to The Hill on Monday.

Data and modeling from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that the federal government is expecting the number of cases and deaths associated with the pandemic to continue mounting, even as President Trump and other officials push for states to lift restrictions meant to slow the spread of the virus in favor of reopening businesses.

The New York Times, which was the first to report on the projections, posted the documents, which show the CDC and Federal Emergency Management Agency forecast a steady increase in the number of new cases per day.

The projections show the U.S. reaching 200,000 new cases daily by June 1 with a daily death toll of roughly 3,000. The number of daily cases peaked in late April at just over 30,000. The current daily death toll varies, but typically falls between 1,500 and 2,000.

You are doing math.

These people do not want you to do math. They want you to do fear and panic.

The UN put out a figure of 265mm this year alone, dying from starvation this year, because of the WuFlu

How?
By spending some time on the twitter “covid” search.
Full of garbage but occasionally I find a gem. Also some people I follow have a history of citing very good posts.
(I didn’t join twitter, but I can see what on it. Who has time for all that nonsense?)

I think test positivity results will be much more useful now and in the future.
Also that site is a good place to go to when the media screams “LOOK! X NEW CASES!” and don’t show how many tests it took to find them.

I have been saying millions of third-world inhabitants would starve because of it.

Do you have a link for your 265-million number so I can have it for future use?
