Updated with another news story based on the original article.

Because they don’t specifically mention it (at least I didn’t see it) in their discussion—I saw it in their tables. Instead, they focused on no intervention leading to 500k deaths in the UL and 2.2 million in the US and another “most effective mitigation strategy” with all cases being treated and still resulting in 250k deaths in the UK and 1.1-1.2 million in the US.

Man, with all these crawfish around here prices should be low this year.

The downside is that we’re going to see a nursing home like that in every state.
There’s one in St. Louis that will be on the evening news. (You’ll never guess the owner.). They’re not done with testing and we’re at 12 residents and 4 employees. A home in DuPage, IL had 46 cases. This is going to burn through some nursing homes.

They've taken the second paragraph out of that article. And removed the 500,000k from the fourth one.
I guess they're trying to cover up his colossal blunder and save his career.
