The newest projection from a coronavirus model cited by the White House says the U.S. will have nearly 200,000 more deaths from COVID-19 by March if current measures to stop the virus' spread remain the same.

The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington in Seattle on Thursday projected that the U.S. will have 320,403 deaths by January 1 and 438,940 by March 1.

When adding them up and comparing them to flu deaths consider that it is now two seasons, not comparing to one season of flu.

And of course, no flu deaths.

I’d say the left is very scared.

Don’t trust models. Remember the models being cited last February/March? How many millions were projected to die in the US?

So, what does the Model say about how to avoid that outcome?

Let’s give the emergency approval for the vaccine and get on with Operation Warp Speed. It looks good for us in states with GOP governors. I’ll take the Trump vaccine gladly as soon as I can.

Are these the same bogus models that claimed 2 million dead in America this year from the KungFlu?

I just updated my model and it predicts 11,673,935,350,230.5 deaths by next March. It also shows that BIPOCs and children will be most affected. We need to immediately triple our funding to the public schools to avert this tsunami.

As I wrote elsewhere, lest anyone think otherwise, we are seeing a SEASONAL RISE in cases and fatalities, and not a "surge.

The majority of deaths in most countries can be attributed to causes that feature a distinct seasonal pattern. The figure depicts the relative monthly frequencies of nine selected causes of death in the United States for women and men combined for the years 1959–2014. The reported number of counts in parentheses in the title of each panel is the actual number of deaths.

Viruses gonna virus. Even non-viruses gonna non-virus.

The only thing that will cause an abatement is the vernal equinox, not a deepened loss of liberty.

No deaths from auto accidents (usually healthy people)
No deaths from heart disease (#1 cause of death)
No deaths from cancer (#2 cause of death)
No deaths from drug overdose
No deaths from suicides
No deaths from gunshots (Chicago has a few usually)
No deaths from medical blunders
No deaths from diabetes & obesity (increasing every year due to obesity epidemic in USA)

But by golly if a person dies from covid-19, it is a national catastrophe. Never mind 99% of people dying from the China Virus are already in terrible health with 2 or more serious comorbidities.

"Don’t trust models."

Yeah but didn't you read? These are updated models. That means they are, like, super duper charged models, really really accurate this time.

The average number of deaths, for any cause, per year in America is 2.2 MILLION. People die. . .these fools are cutting into the normal death rate and attributing it to COVID. The number of COVID deaths by COVID alone. . .is 9000. . .any number above that are cases where COVID was present. . .or potential symptoms were present but COVID was not the cause of death.. . but 230,000 and projecting over 400,000 keeps the people in fear and compliant. . . and it will never end. We have allowed politicians to be gods over us. . .They will never relinquish the power we deferred to them. . .We can only take it back. . .they will not voluntarily give it up.

Life is fatal.

Cowering in fear is merely existence, not LIFE.
