Around 350,000 Americans will die from COVID in 12 months. Is that winning?

[Luther]

Still waiting on a source which shows Johns Hopkins is fudging the numbers.

Well, you can wait forever if you decide not to use common sense

 

[Tralfamadore]

Again, you have nothing. You make baseless claims without any evidence. You should not be taken seriously. When you talk about "common sense", I'm not sure you understand what that means.

 

[CaughtInThe]

Oh yeah, the CNN inflated COVID death numbers?

*sigh*

No

*Sigh*

 

[TU Curmudgeon]

270,394 as of today.

And, as of today

​

 

[TU Curmudgeon]

Around sixty thousand official “death predictions” will be announced in that time. One or two man be close if past accuracy is any key.

I hate to tell you this, but I have been within one day (plus or minus) on my predictions of EVERY "Grim Mortality Milestone" so far.

 

[TU Curmudgeon]

Is that the latest mantra from Loony Central? Trump didn’t wear a mask so millions died? How come people are dying in mask-mandate states?

[TU Curmudgeon]

Um, I didn't allege that Johns Hopkins is inflating their numbers. Is this how you debate? You're not very good at it.

It's rather difficult to debate someone whose debating style is

"Is too."

"Is TOO."

"IS TOO."

"IS TOO."

"IS TOO!"

"IS TOO!!!"

"IIIISSSSSS TTTTOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!"

And . . .?

As we speak an American is Dying every minute of the day due to Covid 19.

 

[Bullseye]

As we speak an American is Dying every minute of the day due to Covid 19.

Yep, and for many other reasons as well.

 

[CaughtInThe]

Yep, and for many other reasons as well.

that makes the COVID deaths okay then.

 

[Casper]

Yep, and for many other reasons as well.

So, you ran out of replies and said so what? Think this has run it's course to the same old conclusion.
Now:
Wash

Nope, just pointing out people are dying for myriad other reasons.

Impressive work.

 

[TU Curmudgeon]

As we speak an American is Dying every minute of the day due to Covid 19.

The current average is 1.03403, but one per minute is close enough for government work.

​

 

[CaughtInThe]

What?

Do ya have a Crystal ball or something?

have you checked the numbers lately?

 

[CaughtInThe]

It could be more or less obviously, but if we keep averaging what we've averaged so far (even with a ton of people, but not all, being safe) it should be somewhere in that range. And what's a bit concerning is we're now doing more things together with November, December, January and February to go.

That's without a vaccine and mass production and distribution of course.

i was WAY off.

 

[TU Curmudgeon]

i was WAY off.

I wasn't.

​

 

[Metric Mouse]

I wasn't.

You really think it'll take until February 23 to reach 400,000 deaths?

 

[noonereal]

Around 350,000 Americans will die from COVID in 12 months.

This was an optimistic post as it tuned out.

We will be right around 500,000 at the one year mark, a number no one imagined would come to fruition.

I have repeatedly said we'd lose at least that many people. Everyone knew we would reach these numbers; most thought it would be double that. We still might get close.

 

[noonereal]

Everyone knew we would reach these numbers

This is not true. Not true at all. Just flat out wrong.
There were no serious estimates above 200,000 and most were thinking less than 100,000.
