It still sucks to have people die from this ... I lost an aunt and uncle to COVID 19. It's been brutal.

But 0.3% is a far cry from the 3 and 4% some models were predicting back in February/March.

I think at one point it was even higher than that. I seem to remember Dr. Fauci giving an initial prediction of 1 million U.S. deaths from it. But i can't remember if he was saying that might be the TOTAL death toll by the time we have a vaccine / effective treatment 2 years down the road or so.
