It has been a couple of days since I checked--is the model still predicting 5,500 deaths in Alabama by the end of April? Because the Alabama Dept. of Public Health says that there are only 271 people hospitalized state wide for this and I am having a hard time reconciling these figures.

A lot of significant decisions were made based on that 5,500 death projection.

Alabama’s death projections decreased a whopping 90% from 9000 to 900...total.

They are a prime example of the overestimation.
