Does anyone have links to projections for cases/deaths, possible timelines? I know there are ones floating around from maybe 2 weeks ago, but are there revised ones? I'm still trying to wrap my head around what exponential is going to look like.

the best case option dr. birx and fauci were showing a couple days ago was 200k dead americans. the worst case bound was about 2 million dead. in the last 48 hours we've consistently been doing worse than their worst case scenario

here is a decent one that has a nice interface and regularly updates: https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections

the model is built on data for critical cases in hospital, largely from China, and weights government enforced social distancy. It may be a significant underestimate.

rod dreher and other hardcore christians are having a massive internal argument about this as well. there's a lot of parts of orthodox christianity that have to be done in person and must go on. so far there's one group that claims if they are all that serious about their faith they need to go out and risk it or they will be shown to be full of poo poo, and then nobody will take them seriously on abortion and gays. and then there is another faction that wants to put it all on hold, because if they get sick christians will be scapegoated and then nobody will take them seriously on abortion and gays.

we have a "true CFR". it's literally the fatality ratio for positive cases--which just so happens to be poo poo because we're only testing people about to die because we don't want to test everyone and make number go up and make strongman daddy look bad, that's intentional. but it is a number and a number based on how shitly we're doing testing so if you are allowed to get tested within our poo poo-testing program you have a number of how likely you are to die.

now if you mean like, actual mortality rate, yeah.
