He says what this would look like is less than 100 people dying a day.
For example, we are still at 1,683 people dying per day and 56.2% of adults vaccinated.
And we are still at 99,795 people on average every day getting covid and testing positive.
Now remember the CDC also says that they believe the real number of people getting covid is around 10 times the number they show simply because most people (9 out of 10) get covid and never get tested. People who don't have really bad (go to the hospital) symptoms mostly don't get tested ever. So, this is 9 out of 10 people getting covid.
So, if you take for example approximately 100,000 people testing positive that means that actually 1 million people a day are getting covid still now every day. It's just that 900,000 of them are not getting sick enough to get tested for it before they spread it to everyone they know in their circle of family and friends and acquaintances.
