US: New York Times report that the Trump admin is projecting the daily virus
death rate to have doubled by June, citing an internal document from the CDC:
- "As President Trump presses for states to reopen their economies, his
administration is privately projecting a steady rise in the number of cases and
deaths from coronavirus over the next several weeks, reaching about 3,000 daily
deaths on June 1, according to an internal document obtained by The New York
Times, nearly double from the current level of about 1,750.
- "The projections, based on modeling by the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention and pulled together in chart form by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency, forecast about 200,000 new cases each day by the end of the month, up
from about 25,000 cases now."
