The chart Philip is showing is not a projection. It's just tracking the deaths reported in the US by state, by the CDC. Then he best-fits a trendline to it. The dots are facts. The line is a best-fit curve. Ignore the line if you want.

Already 14k new US cases since yesterday and by the end of the day we'll have more or less doubled in 24 hours (24k to 45-48k estimate).
Worldwide we'll surpass 500k by tomorrow morning and hit a million sometime early Wednesday. We're still at least a week away from curbing the exconential growth internationally if our current measures work and it's essentially a mathematical and medical certainty we'll hit 10 million cases world wide by the start of next week.
A lot of people are about to get a very disturbing math lesson.
The dots are guiding the projections, right? Or that is how I remember it in high school math/science.Troutslime said:k2aggie07 said:

So it just says "projected" in the title for fun?

The dots are the datapoints from CDC. The dotted line is a best-fit trendline. That trendline can be used as a projection, sure. But the dots are facts.

I mean, I get that it's growing rapidly and that certain areas have a real issue (NYC, NOLA), but for most of us, this is a big nothing burger so far.Social Distanced said:
