The CDC Says This Many Americans Will Die From COVID This Month
Bestlife ^ | Aug 3, 2020 | Sage Young

Posted on 08/03/2020 10:41:46 AM PDT by where's_the_Outrage?

In late July, the United States hit yet another sobering COVID-19 milestone. The country has now seen over 150,000 deaths due to the virus. At the time this article was published, data compiled by The New York Times put the total at 155,336. And experts say that the numbers are only bound to get worse at an increased speed. On Friday, Yahoo News reported that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) say that they expect up to 11,000 more American deaths caused by the coronavirus per week in August. If that projection is correct, nearly 44,000 more people will die from COVID this month, bringing the U.S. death toll to nearly 200,000.

Also per The Times, the country recorded just over 8,500 deaths between July 26 and Aug. 2. The CDC expects to see the weekly mortality total pass 10,000 and stay there as the month continues. The rising death toll is the result of a surge in new cases that has impacted the majority of the U.S. and began in earnest in June shortly after many states started reopening. While some states have either paused or reversed reopening as a result, others have resisted pressure to close certain businesses again.

44,000 predicted deaths, probably 75% are going to be a direct result from Sturgis.

Well then, by all means, Dr. Fauci should travel to Sturgis and put a stop to it.

Apple’s East Coast Sturgis is having his bike week no matter what.

Would love to see Jim Jordan grilling Fauci for a yes or no answer on whether Sturgis spreads the virus. He’s probably more afraid of them than of the rioters.

I’d like to see him bump chests with bikers at East Coast.

It’s literally in the middle of Appalachian nowhere and the “private property/anything goes/no police” format would not be to his benefit.

*I* don’t even go there because frankly it’s too hardcore for me.

:D

Dr. Fauci is going to find one day that he's persona non gratain this country pretty much anyplace beyond the Beltway.

I doubt it will have any affect on deaths. Now, cases may go up. That’s a good thing. It gets us to herd immunity faster.

We need to know all deaths from all causes as compared to the same time period last year.

I read that deaths by pneumonia are way down compared to last year.

With, not from.

Many will not know they have it.

Time for the lies to stop.

I can see at least a few hundred deaths as Antifa and similar protestroids say they’re taking their show on the road to Sturgis. All I can say to them is that we won’t miss you one bit and good job by the bikers.

Working up to demanding the President authorize a nationwide lock-down until after November. You wait and see.

We need to bear in mind that desperate Dems may be pressuring medical authorities to falsify COVID-19 mortality rates in another attempt to try to get PDJT out of the Oval Office. Here’s an incomplete list of references from July.

Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government desperate Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a "third term" in office imo.

“The country has now seen over 150,000 deaths due to the virus.”

Would be considerably less if the azzclowns would come up off the HCQ.

You can get those numbers from the CDC’s website. They have been posted many times. The enemedia will not report it.

Numbers of deaths from all causes in the US this year, are lower than last years numbers over all in the US, and managed to be higher than last years numbers on a week by week basis, only during a couple weeks in March. (I think it was March. It May have been in May. I haven’t been back to look again even though people still have 22X less chance to get hit by lightning(@0.002%), as they now have of dying of the Kung Flu. (@0.045%)

Well, sure, but those will be from blunt trauma and acute lead poisoning. :)

The best way to determine the number that will die is to start betting in Vegas.
