No it's not going to wipe out our population but it might get 5% of us and that will be ugly. 5K dead in TV in the next few months would obviously be a big deal.
We had 200K cases worldwide yesterday, 225K today, if we continue with this exponential growth we're looking at over a million by next Thursday or Friday. 4 million in 2 weeks. By following the CDC recommendations we may be able to slow this down and not overwhelm our healthcare system.
I think it's going to rip through our population....but I hope I'm wrong.
I'm not singling out this post, it was just handy for replying.
