The COVID-19 model from the University of Washington predicts a higher death toll from coronavirus as more states move to reopen.
As more states mull reopening businesses and their economies, an oft cited projection model has yet again revised its number upwards. According to the University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation , the death toll from COVID-19 is now projected to reach roughly 138,000 by the beginning of August.
The number includes a marked increase from the original projections which had predicted a death toll rising to roughly 73,000 by Aug. 4. And with the current death toll standing at nearly 81,000 according to Johns Hopkins University’s dashboard tracking the virus, the model shows that the death toll will continue to rise before leveling off toward the end of July.
On Monday the president slammed Democrats for wanting to reopen states “too slowly,” claiming they were doing so “for political purposes.” The White House recently shelved plans to release detailed guidelines from the CDC on how to reopen businesses in favor of more vague guidance offered on its website.
