The U.S. government’s foremost infection disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, says the U.S. will certainly have “millions of cases” of COVID-19 and more than 100,000 deaths.

As the U.S. tops the world in reported infections from the new coronavirus, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases predicts 100,000-200,000 deaths from the outbreak in the U.S.

The U.S. is currently reporting more than 124,000 cases and more than 2,100 deaths.

Here comes Doctor Baw to explain why this expert in the field is wrong.

I think he’s still low balling the numbers.

Got to break them in easy

At least several million dead. At a minimum.

and they'll tell us how all of the 100,000-200,000 that die will not be a big deal b/c they were all old & fat smokers. They will also claim victory b/c early projections were much higher.

Context would be nice. Is he saying over the 2-3 year cycle of this virus or the next 3 months. If it’s the former, it’s nothing different than a typical flu season. Given the source I’m sure the context was conveniently omitted.

Dr. 'Hillary Is So Dreamy' Fauci has received and understood his marching orders.

Doomcasting. Hydroxychloroquine/Zpack treatment will end this doom real quick. New York is almost done with their group of test patients.

Over the next few years this is definitely plausible.

You just can't make this shite up. Folks are still clamoring to "it's just the flu". Wow.

One of the most consistent stats the past two weeks has been the daily %increase in cumulative death total worldwide. It's been between 10 and 14% for the bast 14 days (with the past 9 days being 13 or 14% every day).

So if this, what seems to be stable/reliable, trend continues, in another two weeks, we will be at 170k dead worldwide. We will be at a million dead in a month. 47 million (lol, i really dont think it could sustain itself at that rate that long but god help us all) in two months.

So hopefully the US doesnt continue to be one of the larger contributors to that trend

Well, this doctor baw explained why the earlier experts were wrong in their estimates os 2.2 million dead if we don’t, and 400,000 if we do, isolate. And NOW Dr Fauci is saying the same.

Italy has 10,000 deaths, and we are much better off than Italy because we took action much sooner relative to our outbreak, we have a MUCH lower percentage of old people, and we have a considerably lower incidence of contact between the old and the young.

Italy probably ends at 25,000 deaths. We probably would have 15,000 in the same size population as Italy due to the above. We are six times Italy’s population, so 90,000 dead in the USA. I would not be shocked if we went over 100,000, but I’d take the under.

Then why shut down the country? Let’s get it over with. Once you have it and kick it, you’re immune.

Well it was 2 million dead

Now it’s 200,000

And still, they aren’t giving a timeline for these deaths. 3 months? 6 months? 3 years? That’s a huge thing to omit when talking about deaths
