Fwiw, the newest projections from the primary model the White House has been using has finally been updated since some states lifted stay at home orders.
There are not predicting roughly 134,000 deaths in U.S. by August.
If you will remember, that is where they started a couple of months ago. Then it went all the way down to 60,000 when states enacted stay at home orders. Now it is back up to 134,000.
No model will be perfect but this is the one Trump and his team has been relying on the most.
For the sake of discussion, let's assume it turns out to be accurate. Meaning, instead of 70,000 deaths there will be 134,000 deaths but businesses etc can slowly get going again....is this worth it?
Chuck asked that question at the beginning and it wasn't popular. Its a valid question and one leaders of all kinds are wrestling with.
