Fauci and others say a minimum of 100,000 to 200,000 American lives will be lost in this

I was having a Facetime appointment with one of my cardiologists, the one I have been with for several years now.  And he was saying that he didn't think it was going to get as bad in California as it is going to get in New York or other places in the U.S. simply because we were the first state to shut down. So, he doesn't think it will get like New York City and other places that waited too long to shelter in place to lessen the havoc and damage.

I think he might be right.

But, there are many other factors involved in all this too like how much public transportation does a city use and how many world travelers visit that place and how many travelers from the U.S. visit that place like is true of New Orleans?

Because the biggest transportation hubs in the U.S. and around the world likely will be hit the hardest now but be over their first wave of deaths first too the soonest. It's quite possible that the hardest hit places will be hit maybe this fall or a year from now which aren't visited by world travelers as much.

Fauci thinks we will lose up to 80,000 here in the U.S. by August then many more in the fall and winter after that. He thinks this because of what is happening in Australia where their summer ended and I believe they are now in their fall and cases are growing exponentially now in Australia.

My biggest worry  for earth is that new more deadly strains will appear or that nations or terrorists develop even deadlier strains than these present of the known S strain that doesn't kill and the L strain that does.
