Sean Davis, co-founder of The Federalist, took a serious look at the IHME (Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation) Coronavirus model and called it “garbage.” Davis makes his case through a series of tweets.
The actual numbers range from a low of 9% in Tennessee of the projection to a high of 50% in Virginia. Here are some examples:
The model projected that over 121,000 people would be hospitalized in the country yesterday. The actual number was 31,142. (25.7%)
Texas: Projection – 1,716; Actual – 196 (11.4%)
Georgia: Projection – 2,777; Actual – 952 (34.3%)
Virginia: Projection – 607; Actual – 305 (50%)
Tennessee: Projection – 2,214; Actual number – 200 (9%)
New York: Projection – 50,962; Actual number – 18,368 (36%)
Davis writes that if we’re going to shut down the entire nation’s economy to “flatten the curve” based on the projections of a single model, it shouldn’t be too much to ask that the model approximate reality when it comes to hospitalizations.

We NEED to demand the actual number of inpatients on a daily basis. The number of hospitalizations iis the total number for the past 3 months and it is totally deceptive and just causes fear. Also they need to give us the breakdown of regualr beds, PCU and UCU, number discahrged daily because it will show you the severity of disease and people recovering and leaving the hospital. Also we NEED the breakdown of the number of patients dying from covid and the number of patients dying from the deadly contraindicated combination of plaquenil and zpack ( an antibiotic that blocks bacterial ribosomes and viruses have ZERO ribosomes so will NEVER effect a virus!) The doctor on Tucker from South Miami said they were getting long ST segments and death when giving these drugs and the FLorida pharmacist association verified the pharmacists are also seeing this happen. And then we need the breakdown of the ROche test results that show Covid and also regular sars. There are studies that chlorioquine works on the ACE2 receptor connection in regular SARS and this new RNA segment in SARS cov2 attaches at the furin receptor we all have so the plaquenil would be helping with cases of regualr sars not the new covid and is that why Biirx now wnats the tests to be run through Abbott because the Roche testing shows more regular SARS that affects asians and some white people with dieases like hypertension and NOT a high number of covid in the hospitals?????
Also WHY did Trump allow Fauci to send ALL the drug protocol testing for redemsirvir to China for mild, moderate and severe cases and allow him to deceive and not explain the deadly drug combination of plaquenil/zpack that has been long contraindicated before this disease appeared? Redemservir does have a RNA protease breaking effect in a test tube so it is POOSIZBLY one of the drugs that could help with a person in the hospital but the drug went to China where they mass produced a generic version while Gilead who holds the patent has been denied any significant production. Did Fauci set up China to hold the best drug that China can then steal from Gilead and sell to the US and rest of world and be the heroes. That sounds like China First NOT America First.
People are forcing to wear ankle bracelets for testing positive to a virus because Trump dissolved your HIPPA medical rights to privacy yet pedohpiles are free in the streets Why is the Tea Party not demanding return of HIPPA privacy that Birx should have clearly stood up for EVERY American the way she stood up for everyone with AIDS as they lost their jobs and apartments when their test results were given publically. Here's Trump's contact page -https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/ Demand return of EVERY Constitutional rights and replace HIPPA medical privacy, demand NO forced entry into homes by CDC regulations with NO forced testing or forced vaccines that studies show with SARS caused huge histopathology and death in EVERY mouse and a reccommendation in 2012 that NO SARS vaccine trials in humans should ever be done! Are you going to trust Fauci after those results - of course he needs the virus to contin ue so he gets his data for his vaccine so how do you accomplish that - flatten the curve. Just take a string and place it over the China inverted V curve and pull the string out - what happens - the virus length of time increases out for an enormous extended period of time. Some states are already talking shut down through June. How much money will Trump print and how much will he borrow from China???? All Trump needs to do is mass produce viral filters and put them in public buildings and put toilet cover seats on public toilets - that's how you control an AIRBORNE disease! Why do you not think he has caught this - HUGE viral and every type of air filtration systems in the White House to prtect a president! Why doesn't it spread through hospitals or dialysuis centers - hepa viral filters!!!!! Where does it spread - through the common air conditioning units in old nursing homes and cruise ships! What did Washington state buy to quarantine people - an old motel with window single unit air conditioners to prevent spread through the air!!!! WHY can't public health officials educate the public about an ariborne diease and has a whole country cleaning cleaning cleaning for a virus spread through the air like TB?????? Why aren't there more health inspectors out in force inspecting all these restaurants when everyone I see is wearing these nitrile gloves wrong and even taking them off to use the bathroom and putting back on the same pair. What is happening as they prepare your food with no one watching???????
Dr. Birx said that the models are just predictions based on what they know IT IS NOT AN EXACT NUMBER OF HOW MANY ARE GOING TO BE ILL OR DIE. IMHO I feel that many numbers are being bloated to cause more panic and fear. How to control people cause FEAR and then push them as far as you can. People are smart and this is not going to go over well . The country has to work and Dems know that once that happens the pres will shine they do not want that that is why Fauci is such a harbinger of doom. If this many were dying they would be dropping dead all over they are not.
The president just allowed his HHS secretary to tell every American to join Obamacare when it was his policies that forced everyone out of their jobs and insurance for a virus that is barely killing anyone out of 327 MILLION cotizens. Now he is allowing his cabinet to promote Obamacre and everyone says thank you and doesn't call him out? So now everyone gets a chack - Yang's idea. Everyone joins Obamacare so it can't be dismanteled even if the Supreme Court rules it can. People are recceiving free healthcare for nonrelated illnesses if they go to a ship so they are on the government dole - WHY can't the government take an insurance card and charge? They are possibly opening up VA Hospitals and if they do there will be NO charge even though there is insurance. Birx pushed Roche testing so BUY SWISS! Fauci explained it a month ago - viruses outbreaks decrease so he never gets his vaccine testing - EVERY scientits and epidimiologist understands that flattening the curve just prolongs the time - BUT what Birx and Fauci never told you is that gives MORE time for more mutations. Viruses, bacteria and even cancer cells also have the ability to develop chjanges that allows them to HIDE from different immune cells so are we giving this virus more time to adapt - YES! Look at HIV - this virus had HIV sections and China cohort studies show it affects cells in the blood - just like HIV and MERS. When there is a MERS outbreak in a middle eastern country then NO ONE travelling there and returning can dionate blood infected or not for 28 days - WHY - to protect the blood supply and not spread the disease. SO WHY did the surgeon general and these paperpushing scientists recommend and push everyone donating blood when there is NO antibody test? How much of the outbreak numbers are from receiving the virus in a blood transfusion???? Those who cannot remmebr the past are doomed to repeat it! IF Birx who is the HIV expert can't advise properly on this - WHY hasn't Trump fuired her??? He is NOT surounding himself with the best people.. He is surrounding himself with the people pushing us into socialism. HOw can Trump get up in a debate and argue against Obamacare, a living wage, medicare for all when he is implmenting it under our noses????? He has separated everyone in a way to totally control - anyone who steps outside is either stopped by the police and in Kentucky has an ankle monitor applied and in Altamonte Springs the police have the positie results and are watching and throw the person back inside and even if they live alone are banned from leaving to get food to live and everyone applauds Trump as a hero???? Trump has turned everyone against each other and separated so no one can organize or speak up. And the DOJ can watch and monitor writings and use social media to suppress anyone who speaks out through shaming and pressure. THIRTY more days and this virus is still here in the same amount possibly stronger so how long before anyone except one person speaks out and says NO RESTORE my HIPPA privacy NOW and restore my constitutional rights including freedom of assembly!
