So 170 to 200k best case, 1.7million plus worst. Congrats on finally getting what I said which is decidedly NOT what you originally posted.
But OK you now get an honorary degree in the medical sciences. You win the internet.
I linked that because you repeatedly cited the CDC's estimate of a 60-80% infection rate as if that was the actual projection, when in fact it is a cautionary projection based on doing nothing. According to the CDC, these worse case projections are not going to happen since we are already doing the things that the projection is based on us not doing.
As to your crack about having a degree in "medical sciences," I fail to see how I'm implicitly making such a claim any more so than those who are arguing for a higher number.
It's weak. The truth is if you agree with someone's opinion, you won't accuse them of assuming expertise they don't have. That claim is reserved for the people you disagree with, right? It must be so since everyone I'm arguing with here has an opinion on this topic just like I do but you aren't accusing anyone else of claiming to be an expert.
