C19pro is the best model out there, but it only uses deaths as its input. That's good because cases are a noisier measurement, but it's bad because of the lag effect I just described. It will take time to correct if there is a large transient in R.
All else being equal, if the case count triples, the death count is going to triple. Now in this case there are two things that aren't equal. #1 is that the cases are more biased towards younger people, and #2 is that positivity has increased. I expect that these two factors will roughly cancel each other out and the death count will be about 2200. Would you care to place a wager on the over/under at 1600?
