CDC’s Worst-Case Coronavirus Model: 214 Million Infected, 1.7 Million Dead

Newly revealed projections warn of a massive potential toll in the U.S., but the worst-case estimate doesn’t factor in recent efforts to respond.

nymag.com

From the article:
A recent CDC projection estimated that the U.S. coronavirus epidemic could infect between 160 million and 214 million people over a period of more than a year — and kill anywhere from 200,000 to 1.7 million people in the country.

So much for your claim that the worst case scenario isn’t worse than influenza.

you missed "in more than a year" compare that to 2 years of flu deaths. Those projections are not recent, they are several weeks old and the current ones are significantly lower.

I am not saying we should ignore it, just that the panic is unnecessary.

The USA is becoming the new epicenter. Look at what is happening in Europe and do not be stupid. Trump will not save you.

it only appears that way because we are doing more testing than anyone else. And, the majority of those who get it (80%) will have no symptoms, and 98+% of those who get it will survive.

China has lied from the beginning about its numbers and mortality rates, the rate of new infections in Europe seems to be coming down, and thats a good trend.

Stop the Trump-hate and try to look at this realistically. but you won't because you are a sheep of your masters at CNN

Oh Sweet Jesus. We are doing a TENTH or TWENTIETH the amount of testing as a lot of other countries. Doing more testing? Freaking LEARN SOMETHING.

That was right last month but not now. Right now the US is doing more testing than the rest of the world combined. Our new tests can be done in 15-minutes and 5-minutes, with better accuracy.

That doesn't address your lie that the US is doing more testing than anyone else - Which is BULLSHIT. Additionally, people in drive through testing lines don't get it done in 15 minutes. 3 hours is a typical wait time, and that's after you jump though a butt-ton of hoops.

[WEATHER53]

You saying there is a vaccine?

it appears so....

Annual deaths from influenza are 20-60k. It would take 20 years to get to 1.7 million deaths.

As you can see, your claim that COVID isn’t going to kill as many as influenza is unsupported.

so why incite the public into a panic, and literally stop the productive worker ant(s) from producing?
~S~

I think that is all Trump was trying to do, not scare the pants off people so that they refuse to go to work even though its relatively safe.

Cuomo had an upbeat presser today.
1. More people leaving the hospital each of the last 8-days.
2. Fewer people entering the hospitals the last few days. (a trend or a blip? we'll know next week)

Not to jinx us, but it looks from the last few days that the US curve is bending downward to a peak, like the EU appears to be doing. We'll know that in the next week or two.

I would say information like this is why the lockdowns must continue. We might, just might be starting to make some headway against this thing. Here is some other good information to report.

The percentage rate of increase in confirmed cases per day has been declining for a few days now:

March 24, 2020 - United States - 54,916
March 25, 2020 - United States - 68,489 - 24.7% increase
March 26, 2020 - United States - 85,594 - 24.97% increase
March 27, 2020 - United States - 104,256 - 21.8% increase
March 28, 2020 - United States - 123,776 - 18.7% increase
March 29, 2020 - United States - 142,224 - 14.9% increase

The increase had diminished three days in a row but that brings you great sorrow

As the US has lagged behind other advanced nations in testing for the coronavirus, former government officials and public health experts point to a series of policy and procedural decisions that they say hindered the nation's response to the pandemic.​

​

South Korea had run more than 300,000 tests as of Friday, and while there is no official count of tests done in the United States, Dr. Deborah Birx, part of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, implied about 170,000 people have been tested so far. The US population is more than six times that of South Korea.​

​

For weeks public and private labs have raced to boost their testing capacity, but people across the country, even some with underlying health conditions, have told CNN this week that they have not been able to get tested.​

​

Asked Friday whether the US can currently meet demand for tests, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said, "We are not there yet."​

So anyone can get a test in 15 minutes?

None of your bullshit is true...as usual redfish

What I posted is 100% true. Those tests are being administered at a drive thru testing facility in NOLA right now, as well as in many other places.

But not everyone should get tested, only those with symptoms that MAY be corona, most are not corona, most test results are negative. There is absolutely no logical or medical reason to test 330 million people.

CDC’s Worst-Case Coronavirus Model: 214 Million Infected, 1.7 Million Dead

Newly revealed projections warn of a massive potential toll in the U.S., but the worst-case estimate doesn’t factor in recent efforts to respond.

nymag.com

From the article:
A recent CDC projection estimated that the U.S. coronavirus epidemic could infect between 160 million and 214 million people over a period of more than a year — and kill anywhere from 200,000 to 1.7 million people in the country.

So much for your claim that the worst case scenario isn’t worse than influenza.

you missed "in more than a year" compare that to 2 years of flu deaths. Those projections are not recent, they are several weeks old and the current ones are significantly lower.

I am not saying we should ignore it, just that the panic is unnecessary.

The USA is becoming the new epicenter. Look at what is happening in Europe and do not be stupid. Trump will not save you.

it only appears that way because we are doing more testing than anyone else. And, the majority of those who get it (80%) will have no symptoms, and 98+% of those who get it will survive.

China has lied from the beginning about its numbers and mortality rates, the rate of new infections in Europe seems to be coming down, and thats a good trend.

Stop the Trump-hate and try to look at this realistically. but you won't because you are a sheep of your masters at CNN

Oh Sweet Jesus. We are doing a TENTH or TWENTIETH the amount of testing as a lot of other countries. Doing more testing? Freaking LEARN SOMETHING.

That was right last month but not now. Right now the US is doing more testing than the rest of the world combined. Our new tests can be done in 15-minutes and 5-minutes, with better accuracy.

Nonsense ^

That,s whT they are told by the Liar in Chief and they believe it.

Yep, they will believe and repeat whatever he Dear Leader decides to lie about on any given day. And they don't merely believe it. They believe it with all their heart and all their soul!

And repeat it like truth. That is really scary.

What is your source for this? I am having a hard time locating the number of tests run daily in the EU as it’s not reported on the ECDC website (as far as I can tell).

My source was yesterday's Pence Team briefing on the virus.
Don't remember who said it, but with nearly instant test results it makes sense to me.
I don't know how long they need for test results in the EU?

So you're quoting "Science Mike" Pence ... REALLY?

What got my attention was this post of yours:
"Oh Sweet Jesus. We are doing a TENTH or TWENTIETH the amount of testing as a lot of other countries."

I strongly disagree with that outdated statement, "we are doing" is not the same as "we were doing"

Sorry, those are current numbers. Stop please - Lying makes the Baby Jesus Cry.

As the US has lagged behind other advanced nations in testing for the coronavirus, former government officials and public health experts point to a series of policy and procedural decisions that they say hindered the nation's response to the pandemic.​

​

South Korea had run more than 300,000 tests as of Friday, and while there is no official count of tests done in the United States, Dr. Deborah Birx, part of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, implied about 170,000 people have been tested so far. The US population is more than six times that of South Korea.​

​

For weeks public and private labs have raced to boost their testing capacity, but people across the country, even some with underlying health conditions, have told CNN this week that they have not been able to get tested.​

​

Asked Friday whether the US can currently meet demand for tests, Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said, "We are not there yet."​

The US had done a bit more testing than South Korea. But they have a population of 58 million. Compared to what? Trump makes these statements and the minions do not even think.

As the US has lagged behind other advanced nations in testing for the coronavirus, former government officials and public health experts point to a series of policy and procedural decisions that they say hindered the nation's response to the pandemic.

My point that the US tests are way more than you say is CONFIRMED.
Like I said, your info is NOT CURRENT. Your article is from March 19th, now its March 29th.

"South Korea had run more than 300,000 tests as of Friday, and while there is no official count of tests done in the United States, Dr. Deborah Birx, part of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, implied about 170,000 people have been tested so far. The US population is more than six times that of South Korea."

So 856,546 tests is WAYYYYY fucking bigger than 170,000 isn't it??? QED.

You F-ing IDIOT - the 856,546 are tests that have been run WORLDWIDE - NOT in the US.

I'm going with the Birx number .. you choose whichever one blows yer skirt up!

Dr. Deborah Birx, part of the White House Coronavirus Task Force, implied about 170,000 people have been tested so far. The US population is more than six times that of South Korea."

You're wrong. Click on the top link for "cumulative data" and you can see that your 170,000 number fits in 2-weeks ago, and how fast US testing is increasing. Thanks for playing. Learn to read, it helps when you post.

So you don't believe Dr Birx? Okay cool

Duh, Dr. Birx' 170,000 was 2-weeks ago. Do try to read the link, if you can read.

I just cannot believe that the vast majority of the people who voted on this thread wanted the economy to open up again. Mankind will be wiped out because of stupidity.
