Help me out with the IMHE model that experts are relying on for guidance.

They are projecting the following for Louisiana:

1,141 COVID-19 deaths projected by August 4, 2020

But Johns Hopkins has already tracked 1,156 deaths for Louisiana. LINK

Do the IMHE model projections for Louisiana not include deaths that have already occurred?

Its projections are for total deaths including observed deaths (past).

It’s highly volatile.

And while they update it every other day, it doesn’t even match up with the data we have.

This is what I overlooked.

And the IMHE model flattens out after May 1st. There are going to be more deaths by COVID in Louisiana after May 1st despite what the model says.

They forgot to change the modeling parameters after it predicted Hillary would win the 2016 Election.

Speaking of that I hope my local wastewater facility never contracts them to model their future flows

1141 is just the median projection. The top of the range is 1729.

Our range really has not fluctuated that much in the last three weeks. Hopefully, we are at the decline of our curve so those death numbers will slow down.

LMAO, talk about an overbuilt facility...

With their model, Auburn, AL would need a facility big enough to handle Metro ATL's current flow...

I like the ability to look at County data on the basis of infection rate acceleration on this website. Looks like the new case peak is well in the rear view for Louisiana. And there’s no hot spots which are getting infections reported at a faster rate than they were previously.

Yes.

Got a little worried about EBR last week. We overtook New Orleans in terms of our R(0) and we are the largest parish in the state by population but our hospital/ICU numbers stabilized quickly and they started to decrease.
