Thats irresponsible
Imaging going to your Dr and being dignosed with something, and he them says I expect about 50 0f my patients will die frpom this in the next few momths. Even if he hits it on the head, you dont do that to scared people
What a fricking moron. Its time that this 80 yr old is muzzled

Why do you think Fauci would sensationalize this?

There is only one strain of the virus and anyone who beats it will then hold the antibodies.

COVID-19 is politically motivated. It was made up by the left to get Trump out of office and to pass universal health care

You really think the rate will continue at 2,000 deaths every 3 months? We went from 1,000 to 2,000 in 48 hours.
I tell you what. Since you don’t understand math and exponential growth. Let’s do this. Today you give me a penny. Then tomorrow you double it and give me two cents. And continue to double it for say about 4 weeks. Let me know how much money someone would get in a month.

well, yea, when the death toll predictions in the UK go from 500k to 20k people, will begin to doubt.

What are you basing this on? You do realize that people will still be getting sick and dying when everything opens back up, right?
100,000 deaths isn't hard to believe at all if you extrapolate over say 18 to 24 months.

Because he is a shill and a mouthpiece for government organizations that will be under serious scrutiny if they are wrong.

In elementary school, we had someone come give an assembly at our school. During the assembly he explained how quickly things can multiply, using pennies as an example. He said that if you started a job making 1 penny per day, and your pay doubled every day, you could retire by the end of the month.
I think the same logic can be applied here. We started with a penny. The rate of growth is determined by how we respond.

Remember when you were scoffing this off as "it's only 60 deaths in the U.S?" Good times.

Surprised to see you're still in the staunch denial camp.

Impossible. The OT tells me this is a nothing burger. There is no way that we know less than the world’s preeminent infectious disease expert.

Who knows how this virus will spread, respond etc. . . probably the best sign you are hearing from an actual expert is their willingness to concede how many unknown variables are in play.
However, one thing is very clear:
Elementary school children who paid attention that day in your class would do better than half this board in simply understanding the concept of exponential growth to the basic level necessary for intelligent discussion.

Did he say how many die from the flu each year?

Why wait? Republicans own most of the guns.
You’re a coward for waiting for a virus to do your work

I'd rather your hillbilly arse be muzzled and let the actual scientists speak. Your cousin is getting lonely, go pay him a visit.

You’d have a lot more than that. 1 cent per day growing exponentially over 31 days would be over 10.7 Million dollars.
eta- obviously not suggesting the infection rates will grow this way
