If the governor is assuming exponential growth, what's the doubling time? From the formula: N(t) = N0*2exp(t/Td) where: - N(t) is the final count (25.5M)

If the governor is assuming exponential growth, what's the doubling time? From the formula:
N(t) = N0*2exp(t/Td)
where:
- N(t) is the final count (25.5M)
- N0 is the initial count (1040 according to Johns Hopkins)
- t is the time (8 weeks)
- Td is the doubling time (TBD)

Solving for Td:
Td = t/(ln(N(t)/N0)
Plugging in the numbers, I get Td = 0.8 weeks, or 5.6 days.
