I'm sure, in two weeks, when we're nowhere near 12,000+ dead, you guys won't come back and apologize for being absolutely bonkers alarmist.

The US currently has 696. 143 so far today (141 yesterday).

There's zero evidence we're going to see the type of spike it'd take to meet that goal two weeks from today.

After tomorrow, to get to that point, we'll have to see 1,000+ die every day and we've seen no evidence we're even remotely close to that point.
