    The left is losing...because we quoted trump touting 100,000 deaths as the new benchmark for success?

    How about the fact that the Trump administration is privately predicting that the death rate will double in a month and that the number of daily infections will see an 8x increase?

    Coronavirus model projects 134,000 deaths in US, nearly double its last estimate

    (CNN)An influential coronavirus model often cited by the White House is now forecasting that 134,000 people will die of Covid-19 in the United States, nearly double its previous prediction.

    The model, from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington, previously predicted 72,433 deaths as of Monday morning.

    Relatedly, a Trump administration model projects a rise in coronavirus cases and deaths in the weeks ahead, up to about 3,000 daily deaths in the US by June 1, according to an internal document obtained by The New York Times. Over the past week, about 2,000 people died daily in the US, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

    The sharp increases in the two models are tied to relaxed social distancing and increased mobility in the US. States across the country -- including Florida, Colorado, Indiana, Nebraska and South Carolina -- have eased restrictions in an attempt to revive a sputtering economy and calm restless residents.

    Well, guess what? All the people you love in the world will die one day. That’s life. And I’m not dismissing the threat of the virus. I stated in an earlier post
    If you get sick easily stay quarantined.
    If you’re elderly stay quarantined.
    If you’re obese stay quarantined.
    If you have diabetes stay quarantined.
    If you have high blood pressure stay quarantined.
    If you have a weakened immune system stay quarantined.
    And if you can’t swim stay out of the ocean. Easy.

    Now, for the other 325,000,000 Americans that don’t fit into any of the above categories get your ass back to work.

    155,000 people die on this planet every day from other than COVID19. 53 million died last year.

    3,781 deaths from Islamic terrorism in the US in 50 years. Yet, we waged two decades long wars, killed 100,000s innocent people because of it and spent trillions of dollars. IN 50 YEARS. Now, all of a sudden 60,000+ deaths in a month are inconsequential? The double standards are flabbergasting.

    Hillary? I knew it was you. Your username Arkanis is spelled real close to your home state of Arkansas and your avatar is a wonderful selfie.

    Where did I blame Trump? I am giving my observation - that Trump is desperate for a 'win'. Can you deny that? He speaks of ratings at the pressers - he tells us how much the governors thank him. He tells of 'countries' who are calling to tell him what a great job he's doing. He is latching on to these numbers for the win. And even though he continues to increase his projections, he seems to think that we've all forgotten the original 15. Any projections he throws out now are crap.

    Well, the US usually sees 230,000+ deaths in a month so only 60,000+ is a banner month.

    It is estimated that about half of the country has a preexisting condition. ;)
    Do you make up all of your data? Just blurt out whatever little thought pops into your head?

    that's 60,000 plus everything else,

    That's a vietnam war in a month. Ask all of the Vietnam vets here if the deaths of their buddies were all insignificant.

    It's just like Vietnam. Democrats got us into Vietnam. DeBlasio decided it would be a good idea hold a Lunar New Year Celebration in Chinatown.

    Democrat John Bel Edwards brought COVID-19 here from Europe for Mardi Gras to infect the south, which had no virus problem.
    Feb25MardiGras.jpg
    We can't forget Progressives heading to Madrid Spain for the March 8 International Women's Day celebration while March8IntWomensDay.jpg

    Which part of Globalism, the Democrat Party, and Progressivism is on Trump's shoulders?

    BTW, funding for the Globalist Progressive Pandemic at Wuhan was initiated in 2014 through grant money laundered through the Globalist EcoHealth Alliance to Wuhan ,,, by your favorite bureaucrat and Clinton Admirer, Tony Fauci.

    The vast majority of infected cases came from Europe.

    If the Europeans had been of a different race, Trump would have stopped them from coming in too.

    Didn't read thread. Trump is smart to calculate massive overcounting in COVID19 deaths among the big corrupt Soprano cities. Just look how much of it they've done so far. Duh.

    Just look at their election and ballot fraud, were they going to count this differently? Follow the money and politics.

    And the Europeans who had it got it from Wuhan as travel was permitted by the Chinese even though they knew about the virus, and banned travel within their own country from Wuhan.

    We can play this alllllll day and night. The virus originated in Wuhan so that's the first place we banned travel from. Stop with the racist bullshit.

    Let's see . . . 60,000 out of 328.2 million people. Shall I do the math for you? Leftist political fear-porn . . . gotta love it.

    You mean the shut down demanded by howling leftists? Nah . . . it was an utterly stupid thing to have done. If there were a better candidate than Trump I'd vote for him or her. Still, it's a mistake that Trump is unlikely to make a second time . . . at least in regards to the entire nation.

    Ok, then we should easily see over 3 million deaths for the US in 2020. We should also see the US life expectancy to drastically fall. Want to wager a bet of self banning for life from the Political Forum that neither happens? Want to back up your post with action?

    Yeah, please.

    How much over a year ?

    So . . . are our political leftists going back to thinking that millions are going to die inside the United States? They seem to be conflicted about what they want. Millions dying is a bad thing; but then also dramatically less than a million . . . even worse. Why it's worse, they apparently cannot say. It remains a mystery.

    Seeing the popular vote that Hillary received in the ‘16 election I tend to agree with you, but I never knew that ignorance was considered a preexisting condition.
    .:roflol::roflol::roflol:


    If you call JAMA a little thought then it’s no wonder that you along with 1/2 of America went out and hoarded all the toilet paper during a leftist media driven hysteria that never had any warnings or advisories of increased defecation.

    Pssssssssst, next time buy canned goods, rice, water and ammo instead of toilet paper when you fear a nationwide stoppage with the production of necessities.

    Well, considering 25% of the deaths were the elderly in nursing homes, not retirement homes and JAMA states that 94% of NYC’s COVID19 deaths were the elderly with underlying conditions then I tend to lean towards the yearly death toll to increase by .06% over last year. The exact same amount of increase from the previous year.

    Currently, only two Western countries do worse than US in terms of number of cases per inhabitant: Spain (1/189) and Belgium (1/228 )

    US (1/267) has overtaken Italy (1/284) since Friday.

    In about 8 days time, US will be the country most affected by the virus.

    And in 15 days, it will also be for the number of deaths per capita.

    It's going so well, the new predictions have doubled the number of potential casualties to 134,000.

    They're even saying it could be as high as 200,000....

    Still happy with Trump's work?

    First, Trump hasn't made anyone ill . . . except for perhaps Nancy Pelosi for having showed the nation that her impeachment of him was a farce. Second when you consider the number of dead to the numbers of people in a nation, the United States is about in the middle of the group. But then again, I suppose that the leftist media outlets are very careful not to inform their marks . . . er . . . the Dem Party voter of reality.
