WIth today& #39;s model update, Virginia& #39;s peak hospital resource use has moved from May 20 ALL THE WAY FORWARD TO April 20

THAT& #39;S ONE HELL OF A CHANGE

ICU beds needed went from 918 to 560

Total deaths from 3,073 to 1,401 https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections ">https://covid19.healthdata.org/projectio...
1401 deaths in a state with 8.5 million population

In 2018 VA had 819 traffic fatalities

Not saying we need to open everything up tomorrow but let& #39;s get some perspective
Note when I say 1401 deaths that& #39;s the projected total

Actual deaths so far in VA is 51
