We are averaging now about 800 to 1000 tested deaths a day now here in the U.S.

So, that means if we use the 1000 average figure that it's about 10,000 deaths for every 10 days or 30,000 people a month. However, it might increase significantly per day after September like it did in 1918.

In 1918 they only lost about 10,000 people between January and June of 1918 and Trump's Grandfather was one of the first people to die of the Spanish flu there in New York City then.

But, the biggest change then was in September when they lost 10 times as many people as before just in the month of September which was 100,000 people died in one month. By 1920 675,000 Americans had died (and this was when we had 1/3 of the population here in the U.S. as we do now).

I think we likely will move forward during the next 12 months at 800 to 1000 deaths a day at a minimum at least at this point. What that means in real time is that we are expected to lose another 12 times 30,000 or 320,000 tested deaths by this time next year.

Today we are at around 170,000 tested deaths so far. But then, you have to add around 200,000 non-tested deaths now too according to the CDC.
