Gov. Cuomo Says Coronavirus Projections from Experts Were All Wrong

CUOMO: "There's only one set of numbers, right? This is not pick your numbers here. We have statewide criteria, they are the same all across the state, and we know where we are on each of those criterion on any given day and they're posted on the website. So we all — there's one set of numbers, we all know the numbers. The question is at what point do the numbers drop to the reopening threshold. Now, people can speculate people, people can guess, I think next week, I think two weeks, I think a month. I'm out of that business because we all failed at that business. All the early national experts, here's my projection model, here's my projection model, they were all wrong. They were all wrong."

Ouch!

Does that mean there's a set of "alternative facts" floating around out there?

Folks (like our Gov) have been treating all the models as scientific fact when in reality they are all just opinions, with some only slightly better than a Magic 8 Ball.

I'm even sure opinions would be correct, I think they are just theories.

Meanwhile - the undisputed FACTS that we are at the start of a worldwide killer pandemic - and the USA - under the leadershit of a mentally ill TV reality star - now leads the global pack in per capita COVID-19 cases/deaths - is evident.

Argue, spin, misrepresent numbers - all day long.
Follow the feckless lead of your MAGA Witchdoctor.
Have fun in the sun,
Shun masks (democrat hoax!) ,
Breathe deep,
Don’t distance,
And prepare to die.

Historically -
The Coronavirus is the only entity WINNING.
And Trump is the BIGGEST LOSER of them all.
