No they cant. Their models included social distancing in them.

Say it worked better than you thought and/or we avoided the worst-case scenario. Problem solved.

Given that they’re projections, during a chaotic time, and that a drop in projected deaths would inspire happiness instead of suspicion for like 99% of people, I don’t think they’re spending too much time worrying about the backlash they’ll get for good news

No, not problem solved. These are the experts, this is what they are trained to do and they have failed miserably. And those failings will lead to immense pain for millions of people. You dont just get to throw some BS against the wall and hope everyone forgets about it.

Our unemployment is sh!tty normally but with the feds chipping in $600/week they'll make a cool $875/week.

Even with the max qualifications, most of my FoH staff takes in more in 25-30 hours a week. I think they also just miss doing their jobs. They're all pretty sociable creatures.

I miss dropping by unannounced and giving them sh*t for all the little things.

How much unnecessary damage to the US economy and how many millions of people lost their jobs because of actions taken based on those incorrect projections?

The freaking pandemic will lead to immense pain for millions of people. Projections aren’t the culprit, unless you’re still suggesting we should have just left everything open

The projections didn't foresee that 95% of the country would actually self isolate for the majority of the past month.

For once, Americans weren't stupid about something.

Projections are absolutely the culprit. Policy was made on them. Scorched Earth policy, instead of strategic policy.

Yes this pandemic will lead to pain for millions primarily due to the assinine approach we used which was done based on these projections.
