Well, the prick has millions of people who agree with him.

Blame the media, who nobody believes any more.

I told you, Biden has stolen the election and won the Presidency.

This doesn't matter. Not anymore.

Killer Joe has slayed the Orange Beast.

Actually the American people fired him.

But yes, this will matter more and more because the case count is getting crazy and winter isn't even here yet.

Dude, it's gone away. Joe has a plan. All is right in the universe.

Don't worry, be happy.

Get as many cases as possible over the next 2 months.

This will make it easier for Mr. Biden to show a reduction.

[jon-nyc]

That's likely to happen if history is any guide.

It would be a nice consolation prize for Trump to be able to announce a vaccine.

Hopefully the happens in December or January.

Would look good on his 2024 campaign literature.

This wave is likely to crest and recede before President-Elect Biden takes over.

Thank God for Trump, eh?

[jon-nyc]

What I find disconcerting about these successive waves is each one is broader than the last.

The first one was basically NY. (simplifying a bit).

The second was sun-belt driven.

This one seems more evenly distributed, and more nation wide.

There’s no question the daily deaths are going to increase, that just follows from the hospitalizations by about two weeks. The real question will be by how much.

[jon-nyc]

The seven day average of cases is double what we saw in August. Might the deaths double from what we saw in August? Not an unreasonable assumption unless you think our standards of care have improved and/or the virus has mutated since August.

Hospitalizations are the numbers we want to watch as a predictive indicator for deaths, not total case counts. Testing has been increasing dramatically in an attempt to catch more asymptomatic cases to prevent spread. A higher percentage of these new cases will be asymptomatic or mild. We also need to remember there is about a 2 week latency from positive tests to hospitalizations and another 2 weeks to fatalities. So look at the case counts from October 15th and the Hospitalizations from the 29th to compare with today’s death totals..
