Current CDC estimates are between 160 million and 214 million US residents WILL catch corona. They are HOPING death rate will be much lower than initial estimates - HOPING for 1.4%. Run those numbers... 180 million folks times 1.4% = 2.5 million dead (low # of infected and low kill rate). Oh yeah, there are currently 950,000 hospital beds in the US. Those will fill up quick which = a higher death rate.
re: 2.5 million US deaths from corona-virus
Then why is China with a population what 5 or 6 times larger than the US and with much less advanced and widespread medical profession NOT seeing those kind of death rates and the virus is in decline there?
