It's not doom. It's reality. We've been predicting these type of #s ...


for the last 2 weeks. The worse thing we can do is mismanage expectations ... and deaths sky rocket over estimates. That would cause a panic.

We knew death was very possible for perhaps 1% of the infected. If we can flatten curve, our healthcare system will be able to save more lives. Ultimately, most of us will be fine. However, we still have to manage expectations of the potential deaths from the virus. It's the best way.
