It predicts peak deaths today, peak resource use tomorrow for the US. Texas peak is better than two weeks out.

We'll see what they say in their updates when the news from Monday hits. I, uh, don't have a lot of confidence in their numbers.

from quick flipping this model seems to base this peak resource thing entirely on NY having hit "peak resource usage" on 4/8 because MA, CA, TX, all the big ones still haven't had theirs hit.

Yeah plus the higher infection rates is pretty much driven by how they don't have the luxury of doing white collar work from home tech or finance jobs.

I don't think Latinos in cook county have significantly more work from home tech/finance jobs than blacks do but deaths are 10:1 despite having the same rough population (more Latinos in Chicago, less in coook county as a whole, but not by much either way)
