US Could See Upwards of 3,000 Coronavirus Deaths Per Day — All Through Month of May
Some people think we’ve hit “the peak” of coronavirus deaths in the United States, even the world. Ultimately, that might not necessarily be the case – despite states beginning to reopen.
Apparently, upwards of 3,000 Americans may die daily from COVID-19 through June 1.
Dang.
From The Hill:
The Trump administration is projecting that the United States could see up to 3,000 deaths per day from the coronavirus by June 1, a person familiar with internal documents confirmed to The Hill on Monday.
Data and modeling from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that the federal government is expecting the number of cases and deaths associated with the pandemic to continue mounting, even as President Trump and other officials push for states to lift restrictions meant to slow the spread of the virus in favor of reopening businesses.
The New York Times, which was the first to report on the projections, posted the documents, which show the CDC and Federal Emergency Management Agency forecast a steady increase in the number of new cases per day.

LOOK:
As he watches Americans die by the thousands, Trump remains incapable of showing empathy or leadership. He *could* have saved lives by sending more ventilators, but he didn’t. That’s true regardless of who Donald “I don’t take responsibility at all” Trump tries to blame. https://t.co/W9KGDXZk4d

And here’s the truth:
Tammy Duckworth is lying.
Governor Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat, said no one — NO ONE — died because they didn’t have a ventilator.
It’s a pretty sick thing to lie like this!
