"The virus is going away," says the president.
Covid 19 morbidity in America has increased at a geometric rate each week since the first victim died in Seattle January 29, and the number of deaths nationwide now totals some 120,000.
In this example, a geometric increase means deaths double each week since the first fatality. Here are the numbers for a ten-week spread:
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 532, 1064.
Reality: From the first death in late January, ten weeks later deaths from the corona virus in America in ten weeks totaled more than 1,000.
Carry that same rate forward to the present, and the number of deaths from Covid 19 exceeds 120,000.
That's from zero as the year began to more than 120,000 in just 20 weeks. And if strong measures had not been imposed to limit exposure, deaths would have totaled more than half a million by this time.
Yet, the Denier in Chief insists there is no problem, even as the number of people infected by the virus continues to rise, and he will meet today at a rally with thousands of devotees crowded into an arena in Tulsa.
Mark this date on your calendar, and check the number of Covid 19 deaths a month from today.
