i expect total deaths to b much worse. total including deaths not directly caused by the virus such as starvation,riots,other illnesses that won't get medical care,lack of supplies including meds,etc.

in the early beginning,JAN, i did the math and came up with 1 billion dead total within 3 years WORLDWIDE. to get this i assumed the grid would stay up and function,power and water. if we lose that this # will b very low. i took the projected # for an EMP and adjusted it with the grid up than calculated that % thru the world. we still have med shortages,ppl not getting the medical care they need,ppl out of work,food shortages,etc. these will get worse. we have been very very lucky so far. the govern plan to cover up and kick the can has delayed the inevitable for now.remember when u are falling u are fine til u hit the ground.

note also, i did that prediction before we knew as much as today. there are times over the year i have thought my # is too conservative. the long term affects of the virus might delay the deaths so ppl spread the virus more.in which case the % of death rate will go way high from where it is now.

mutations have dropped the death rate down. it was running much higher 25-45% in the early months.was running 25% in the early datys in the US. as more testing has found more assymptomatics that % is much lower. but 2nd infections and long term health effects are not yet being reported well enuf to know.

stock pile and stay safe folks
