I mean seriously it's been like 2.5 months.
We have 2 million confirmed cases nation-wide and that is WITH social distancing. We've never social distanced for the common flu, and the average death is like 40k/year.
If you extrapolate that for every 3 million cases reported/tested positive you get 100k deaths, then when we get to 30 million cases that's 1 million deaths. 60 million cases and it's 2 million deaths.
The second wave of the spanish flu was WAY deadlier and terrible than the first wave. I don't doubt the same will happen this time around.
That's like saying in June, eh we've only had 1 hurricane, the hurricane season for 2020 was great, we only had 1 hurricane...with 3-4 months left in hurricane season.
We've literally got like 2-3 years left in coronavirus 'season' (until there's better treatments/vaccines/plans in place).
