Biden definitely said that.

Too bad he won't let the world know his secret plan to stop the virus.

That’s still almost double our current daily deaths for an entire 5 months.

Trump should have said we have had a 95% reduction in flu deaths.

They keep touting Fauci as “ the nations top, most smartest, bestiest doctor fuh realz”, but they gloss over the fact that he has been wrong on pretty much everything and has had to reverse course on his key predictions.

They already are.

And the stupid fricking gaslighters like Tiger Doc scream “social distancing works!!”

Big miss by Trump to ask him why will let 200k Americana die instead of sharing his cure for the virus with the nation now.

It’s DC math. 2x cases = 2x deaths. Never mind we have learned more and more and survivability is going through the roof.

The average death toll per month (NOTE: using the highly inflated number that includes underlying conditions) has been about 22,000 per month. So, that will increase to 100,000/month by year end? That's a 5 fold increase: total bullshite prediction and a scare tactic for voters!

I'll bet my life savings this will not happen!

This was the passage. It doesn't cite a time frame. It's at 19:17 in the debate transcript.

quote:

The fact is that when we knew it was coming, when it hit, what happened? What did the President say? He said, “Don’t worry. It’s going to go away. It’ll be gone by Easter. Don’t worry. Warm weather. Don’t worry. Maybe inject bleach.” He said he was kidding when he said that, but a lot of people thought it was serious. A whole range of things the President has said, even today, he thinks we are in control. We’re about to lose 200,000 more people.

There are 69 days left in 2020.

For 200,000 people to die would require 2898 deaths per day.

The current 7 day average for deaths is 786. This means an additional 2,112 people per day would need to start dying TODAY.

That is a 268% increase in the death rate that must begin immediately and remain at that level every day through the end of the year.

Biden's statement is nothing but pure and utter bullshite.

He has been saying it for a while. I asked my family, sarcastically, where does he get that number?

There is ZERO way we lose 200k more in 2 months. It took 10 months to lose 200k and that was before we have the medicines and knowledge we have now.

What a total fool.

I think the IMHE model made that prediction a few months ago. The current prediction is 316K by year's end (337 if mandates end). 180k more deaths by year's end seems too high to me too.
