Between 2 million and 3 million Americans will die!
That was the prediction from "experts" at London's Imperial College when COVID-19 began. They did also say if there was "social distancing of the whole population," the death toll could be cut in half, but 1.1 million to 1.46 million Americans would still die by this summer.
Our actual death toll has been about one-tenth of that.
Nevertheless, Imperial College's model was extremely influential.
Politicians issued stay-at-home orders. They said we must trust the "experts."
"Follow the science. Listen to the experts. Do what they tell you," said Joe Biden, laughing at what he considered an obvious truth.
