I think you're probably right with official death tolls but 1) the lockdown here isn't anything like italy or spain 2) a lot of states still aren't locked down 3) tons of uninsured people I think we'll hit over 1 million in actual deaths but less than that (750-900k) for official confirmed

I guess the administration figures they can sweep 1.8m deaths under the rug and people won't figure out the real death toll until they compare total deaths in 2020 to 2019. By then it won't matter because November will have come and gone

Instead we're getting 'the doctors are stealing from us' and 'VERY NASTY GOVERNORS' and prayer, so I'm putting my guess at around 500kish, with an official reported number in the low 400k as our actual best case.
