Given that the rate of recovery from Covid 19 in the U.S. has stalled at around 89%, projecting the number of dead – at least, for the U.S. - based on current data, can be more reliably measured. I’ve used October 1 as the watershed date, as that’s when “experts” say all numbers will start to explode – but – who knows what might happen? Remdesivir seems to help Covid 19 patients through their illness, and many U.S. states are slowing or even stopping “reopenings” to mitigate the Coronavirus spread; plus, we are coming closer to a vaccine, so I’m optimistic that the numbers will not jump to the catastrophic levels seen in March and April. (The UK, Spain and Sweden fail to report data concerning recoveries and/or active cases, so no projections can be made.)
