So Drudge has the above headline linked to this article:Up to 200K US deaths foreseen as more cities stricken
AP NEWS... stop the presses!!!!
And this is what they quote without READING what Dr. Fauci really said!!!
"Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, made the dire prediction of fatalities on CNN, adding that millions in the U.S. could become infected."
NOW what did Dr. Fauci say???
Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday that models suggest the coronavirus will infect millions of Americans and could kill 100,000–200,000, though he stressed that the projections are "such a moving target."
"There are things called models, and when someone creates a model, they put in various assumptions. And the model is only as good and as accurate as your assumptions.
And whenever the modelers come in, they give a worst-case scenario and a best-case scenario.
Generally, the reality is somewhere in the middle. I've never seen a model of the diseases that I've dealt with where the worst-case scenario actually came out. They always overshoot."
Axios headline: Fauci says 100,000 to 200,000 Americans could die from coronavirus
Dr. Fauci... "WORST CASE" and he's never seen the worst case... they always overshoot!
