We've been hitting 150-225 reported daily deaths for 3 weeks now.

Things might - might - be slowing down now as most of the nursing homes have finished their transitions into morgues. Too early to tell.

I wonder if there will be a psychological impact from us crossing the 100k deaths mark (in about ten days).

Probably the major pivot point from "it's no big deal" to "the numbers are fake".

It's gonna be 'the CDC said half the deaths aren't real!'

there's been 2 deaths for roughly 1 million people in that 20-29 group, so it's actually 0.2 per 100000

yeah i think the NCAA season getting cancelled is possible - even likely due to the teams being tied to universities - but there is a 0% chance the NFL cancels

If this is the case, and we're around 2k daily now, and the rise is steady, we'll probably have around 75k total May deaths, for a total of around 140,000

lol good question. They've arrested 300 tourists so far breaking the quarantine, some several times. Kauai made a bunch of roadblocks and if you had an out of state ID they had a log of recently arrived people and caught them like that. On Oahu it is basically all from locals scouring instagram and facebook and snitching on people, or from hotel managers snitching on them

Interesting recent Nature article, not sure if it's been posted:
A SARS-CoV-2 protein interaction map reveals targets for drug repurposing

Here's a decent writeup by the authors from a less technical perspective.

They tested on African Green Monkey cells, they see some commonalities between effective drugs, propose a mechanism, etc. Cool stuff.

Now here's the real reason I'm posting this:

Who knows what “stayed at home” actually means. Maybe they got it at the grocery?
