COVID-19 could lead to more than 80,000 deaths in the US and overwhelm hospital capacity nationally as soon as early April even if social distancing measures
The US death toll for the pandemic has already soared past 1,000, with 68,000 confirmed infections. Forecasters at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington's School of Medicine analysed the latest COVID-19 data at a local, national and international level.
They then looked at each American state's ICU bed and ventilator capacity. The analysis warned that based on current trends, demand for both would far exceed capacity for COVID-19 patients as early as the second week of April. "Our estimated trajectory of COVID-19 deaths assumes continued and uninterrupted vigilance by the general public, hospital workers, and government agencies," said Christopher Murray, IHME director."The trajectory of the pandemic will change -- and dramatically for the worse -- if people ease up on social distancing or relax with other precautions."
