New york tiles first reported today a leaked draft from the centers for Disease Control that suggest 3,000 deaths per day by the beginning of june. That is nearly twice the daily death rate were currently experiencing and forecast 200,000 new cases each day by the end of the month up from 25,000 cases a day currently. Now, that sounds very high and we should note here modelling the future course of the virus has been notoriously difficult. You never really know what to make of anything that comes out of the Trump Administration. Today the white house distanced itself from that document saying this is not a white house document nor has it been presented to the Coronavirus Task force or gone inter agency vetting. This is not done by the task force or data the task force analyzed and the numbers are unfinished, projections shown to the cdc as a work in progress. While the exact numbers and charts in the cdc document may differ from the final results, they show accurately how covid19 cases
Task force or gone through enter inter agency vetting. This is not done by the task force or data the task force analyzed and the numbers are unfinished, projections shown to the cdc as a work in progress. While the exact numbers and charts in the cdc document may differ from the final results, they show accurately how covid19 cases could spiral out of control. The main point this cdc draft communicates is what those of us who closely follow the data also see. The new york, new jersey, connecticut outbreaks, the worst in the country have accounted for a huge share of deaths and cases. Those states have peaked and are now on the decline. When you take those states out of the national picture, you can see National Cases in other places are growing, and they are growing in texas and tennessee and iowa and kansas and many other states that are reopening. In fact, the editor and publisher of the website Josh Marshall has been breaking out the graphs of u. S. Cases. You can see in this chart

I get it its like 1965 and lbj. One piece of legislation after another. Spitting it out. Its like an assembly line.

Workers day. Istanbul, thousands defied a government ban and took to streets in protests that erupted in clashes with police. Moscow, tens of thousands marched through red square reviving a may day tradition not seen since soviet union dissolved. Cambodia, reports of beatings as factory workers and opposition supporters defied a ban by demonstrating in the capital of phnom penh. Americans are seizing on may day to put the working class and their struggles back in the limelig limelight. Rallies across the nation, including los angeles, pittsburgh, chicago, with events starting, you guessed it after work. But those observances, it must be said, less about marking progress than they are about the ongoing struggle. Income inequality at historically deep and distressing levels. Wealthiest have not taken such a large share of overall income since the year 1928. In 1965, average ceo earned 20 time as much as an average worker. These days that same ceo makes 273 times the workers wage. This di
