CDC Director Admits: COVID-19 Deaths will be 'Much, Much Lower' Than Predicted

Ah. Finally some truth! While so called "experts" like Dr. Anthony Fauci (who is in the pocket of Bill Gates and the WHO) have been predicting doom, gloom, and death by the hundreds of thousands, we are now being told that is not accurate.

So it appears that people like me, who have been blowing the whistle on all the painfully obvious fear mongering and lies, were right after all. Sorry MSM, but your hayday is over.

On Monday, Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Director Dr. Robert Redfield appeared on AM 1030 KVOI Radio, Dr. Robert Redfield to discuss COVID-19. He said that deaths due to the coronavirus will be “much, much, much lower” that predicted. He attributes that to the social distancing.

Here is a partial transcript: 

HOST: We were talking about some of the models, whether it’s from the imperial college guy in England or the University of Washington. Thank god some of these numbers are falling short of some of these catastrophic numbers. Tell me about the dynamic of the modeling and how it helps and influences decision making and then, when the reality comes in, how does the decision making transform?

DR. ROBERT REDFIELD: I think it’s really important. First, models are only as good as their assumptions. Obviously, there was a lot unknown about this virus. The ability to actively make a lot of assumptions was much wider than if this was an Influenza B outbreak. Second thing, I will say from a public health perspective, to me, the real value of models is to have a model and then try to understand — if I invest resources here, what does that do to the model? If I invest in intervention strategies here, what does that do to the model? It’s a way of beta testing how you’re going to respond and what it does to the different models. And models should never be used to assume that we have a number. You saw those numbers are quite staggering. You’ve got 200,000 to 2 million Americans are losing their lives before the fall. That’s a pretty staggering number.

HOST: Are throwing those kind of numbers out actually helpful because what they do is scare the hell out of everyone to social distance? Is that the purpose?

DR. REDFIELD: I think different people may look at it in different ways in terms of transparency. CDC had models early on. We didn’t really publicize the models. We used them internally to understand deviation strategies. I think part of the importance of getting the American public’s attention that these models did, we really need the American public to be fully engaged now with great rigor and vigilance on the social distancing. As you pointed out, those models that were done, they assume only about 50 percent of the American public would pay attention to the recommendations. In fact, what we’re seeing is a large majority of the American public are taking the social distancing recommendations to heart. And I think that’s the direct consequence of why you’re seeing the numbers are going to be much, much, much lower than would have been predicted by the models
