If that's true, then this crisis is certainty overblown. NY and NYC in particular is the absolute worst case of any location in the United States. And they are lagged quite a bit. It will end up being less deaths than the regular flu, easily.
New York Governor projects 21 days until the peak number of cases in NY

This is **as a result of the lockdown**
You cant use the low numbers that were a result of the lockdown to claim that, "since the numbers are low, the lockdown was unnecessary" that is some dumb circular logic

(and yes, this is what right wing nuts will claim - that it was overblown because there are not as many deaths as predicted, even though this is *a result of the lockdown* - and i knew dumb americans would not get that, but tbh i thought people here were smarter than that)

Lol. 7 Days ago, the US had 23 deaths. Today we had 247 deaths. You are betting this exponential growth will just suddenly come to a screeching halt? Deaths today reflect infections from 17 days ago.

The partial lockdown in the US right now won't be very effective. What will happen is that the death rate will continue to soar, and then the government will take more action.

23 to 247 in 7 days is exponential. Doubling rate is 2 days. So, day 1: 23, day 3: 46, day 5: 92, day 7: 184.

The rate isn't increasing exponentially. Do you math?
