    Just stop it you said 975,000 deaths not 14,797. It's ok to be wrong in fact it's a great thing that it looks like you were way way way off.

    And then the 'superbugs' started to appear. Super bacteria that's resistant to antibiotics, even the strongest antibiotics known to man. First there was MRSA which is Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus. The only antibiotic known to treat MRSA was Vancomycin. Then the superbug became resistant to Vancomycin and VRSA was established.

    I'll link an article about this substance known to biologists as 'mcr-1'. It was discovered in China. This article is from 2017. I see some strangely familiar coincidences between this mcr-1 and Covid-19

    https://www.statnews.com/2016/05/27/superbug-antimicrobial-resistance-explainer/
    What is mcr-1?
    It’s a gene that can make bacteria resistant to colistin, an antibiotic that is important because it can treat infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to most other drugs

    I am NOT responsible for your inability to understand the FACTS that I provided.

    My ORIGINAL 3/10 estimate matched up with the 3/14 CDC estimate because it was based upon THEIR DATA!

    On top of that I made the same STIPULATIONS as to what will CHANGE those estimates.

    The Math does not lie!

    Too bad the same cannot be said for WRT the criminal IMPOTUS and his supporters.

    I'm glad you listened to Trump and his team and I completely agree their guidelines lowered the curve just like they said it would, even better to be honest.

    I agree your responsible for what you posted, 975,000 deaths based on your projections of the projections, I'm happy you were wrong. I'm thrilled Americans listened to the Whitehouse guidelines.

    What's your problem. Can't you tell that previous projections were before the effect of social distancing kicked in? What this means is that social distancing works to reduce the R0, as expected from the science.

    Of course, watch Trump fans spin this into "we knew all along it was a liberal hoax to destroy the Trump economy". They'll protect their leader, no matter what happens. If that means rewriting history, no problem. The righties on here are already starting to claim that Trump's response was perfect right from the start, and they'll deny he ever downplayed the covid threat.

    A few kids in my school were limping and on crutches from polio, so it sounded real good back then.

    But you're right: whatever man does entropy overcomes him

    No my problem is watching those that can't give credit in the face of overwhelming evidence that what Whitehouse and even Dem governors did to lower this curve. My problem is some tried to politicize this virus from day one and don't want to own up to there own failed projections leading to "orange man bad" or "criminal potus". You see many on here have been attacked for posting positive facts concerning the Whitehouse guidelines and the positive effect they were having only to be met with ignorant comment after ignorant political rant. America is winning vs every projection of horrific death thank god. I appreciate Americans who enacted the Whitehouse guidelines and changed the curve and despise those who used it daily for partisan bs, like your doing now. I haven't seen we knew it all along, I've seen Trump and his experts say we can lower the curve by following guidelines and it appears they were exactly right.

    As Trump's GOP allies like Sen. Lindsey Graham and Fox News hosts pushed that narrative, newly-surfaced documents reported by ABC News revealed the White House was warned of the deadly pathogen -- and its potential to cost the economy trillions and to claim half a million American lives -- even before the president's travel restrictions on China which he continues to tout.

    Late Wednesday, the Pentagon put out a statement saying "no such" report exists.

    Thank you for flushing your own credibility on this topic down the toilet.

    Have a nice day!

    You can rewrite history all you want. The truth is that Trump had no choice but get on the social distancing train after the Governors made the decision for him. I know you like to promote the "hail Trump" agenda, but we won't let you get away with changing history.

    I have to admit, I'm impressed. That's probably one of the best spin jobs I've seen on the forum this week.

    Falsehood, as will become clear as more of this utter SCAM unravels, dispelled by videos of real scientists already posted in the thread.

    Trump's multi-year warnings about China and his China travel restrictions, Orangemanbad'ed roundly in MSM, laughed at by Democrats or ignored, or even opposed as racist by political opposition, are ALWAYS inescapable, permanent, necessary context with respect to Trump's COVID policy and response.

    The only "rewriting of history" is omitting that necessary context in favor of this or that partisan hair-split, half-truth about social distancing or whatever. Anyone who omits the -clear- MONSTROUS, inescapable differences between Trump and opposition on earlier COVID response without that necessary context is a LIAR for ALL TO SEE.

    The higher 200,000 model figured in social distancing, the 1M+ one did not.

    Don't forget Biden said the Chinese 'aren't bad people'. The ones that created this mess, that harvest organs from executed political prisoners and who still revere the mass murderer Mao.

    I'm truly beginning to think the original death projection was to scare us into obedience.
