Cruise Ship Location Simulation - Jan to April
Believe It Or Not
The White House presented sobering numbers on Tuesday that the best-case scenario with full mitigation measures in place is between 100,000 and 240,000 deaths in the United States. Those figures would exceed the U.S. death toll from the Vietnam War and Korean War combined.
Trump’s earlier statements are also getting new attention.
A sober Trump warned it was headed into two very tough weeks on Tuesday as officials unveiled models showing as many as 240,000 people could die even if social distancing was practiced.
But on Feb. 24, he tweeted: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA. We are in contact with everyone and all relevant countries. CDC & World Health have been working hard and very smart. Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”
On Feb. 27, when the U.S. had 15 confirmed cases, he said: “When you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.”
On March 9, he compared coronavirus to the flu, and said despite thousands of deaths from the flu, “Nothing is shut down, life & the economy go on.”

Our government is inept and leaderless. We saw this develop in real time in China, and watched how China, Singapore, Korea, and Japan dealt with it.
Amazingly incompetent. Throw the rascals out.
