Where We Are and Where We're Likely Headed with this Pandemic, According to Medical Specialists

Did you see this article on the pandemic in The Washington Post? 

Contrary to Trump’s assurance, the U.S. isn’t ‘rounding the corner’ on the coronavirus

The one part that really got me:

"...a forecast that has come out from the IHME (Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation) at the University of Washington,”... 'They are forecasting by January the first of next year, that we’ll have 410,000 American deaths from coronavirus, which is 225,000 from where we are right now.'"

Stunning.

Staggering.

I remember from earlier this year a prediction that we might or would likely lose 200,000 Americans to this pandemic and I was surprised/shocked.

Buckle up, folks.

The ride isn't over. It's far from over.

God and Heavens help us all.
