Looks like 100k to 999k band will be about right. Probably kill around 250k before the deaths start to fall off and kill around 20/30 a day worldwide.

 

I reckon it will be either that band or the 1 million  to 9.99 million band.  With the caveat that the confirmed deaths will only be a fraction of the overall attributable deaths, and it's not certain to what extent clinically identified cases will form part of the total.  (For instance, in the UK we aren't testing care home residents who are being managed palliatively)

42,000 deaths. 4232 today. Depressing.  632 in the USA and the day is not over yet there;

this does not include the deaths China has lied about.

It could go into millions before the year is out

You know whats even more depressing.

 

That someone as old as yourself is using this time to morbidly stiff chase and post figures wildly available elsewhere on the web as if their some kind of oracle.

 

Shouldn't you be spending your last few months enjoying free access to pornhub premium, or has it all gone a bit rusty and stopped working down there nowadays? Is it the ticker, worried you might have a heart attack?

Corona deaths in Germany by age, region and gender:

-89 (1), from North Rhine-Westphalia (female) 

-85 (1), from Baden-Württemberg  (male) 

-83 (1), from Bavaria (male)

-80 (1), from Baden-Württemberg  (male)

-78 (2), both from North Rhine-Westphalia (one male, one female)

-67 (1), from Baden-Württemberg (male) 

We only had 7 Corona deaths back than. Now (not even a month later) we have 682 and 15 deaths in my home town.

You ARE right about this.  The States have a worst case scenario of about 200000, and we are pretty damn big.  So the world may hit a million.  But millions?  Ain't a-gonna happen.  Of course there's always S. America in denial.... could compound things.

Here's your Acadiana (southern Louisiana) update:

As of noon on March 31, the Louisiana Department of Health reported 1,212 additional cases since Monday, bringing the total to 5,237 positive cases.

So far, 239 people have died.

868 US deaths today. 

 

Man, a lot of people are going to die worldwide the coming weeks.

US could’ve had less deaths if the government hadn’t fucked up this entire thing. Now they’re expecting the death toll to be at least 100k, and I think that’s a lowball estimate tbh...

[paddyfool 379]

RE the various predictions of how many deaths we'll see worldwide this year - currently, the world is seeing about 5000 confirmed Covid19 deaths per day (and rising).  If this was to continue to be the average for the rest of the year, we'd see 1.37 million Covid19 deaths this year.  (Obviously, we'd expect it to climb and then fall, but what the peak and trough values will be, and when we'll arrive at each, is very much still to be decided).  My range of estimates for the worldwide confirmed figure would go from a headily optimistic figure of about 250,000 (if we peak very soon and then drop to well below the current rate for the rest of the year, i.e. if much of the rest of the world follows a similar pattern to China) to 2 .5 million (if we end up averaging nearly 10k per day for the rest of the year) at this point, with a mid-range estimate of about 1 million (which could happen if  we peak within the next month and then daily worldwide deaths drop to rather less than their current level for the rest of the year, i.e. an average of just under 4000 deaths per day for the rest of the year overall).

I am going to say no more than 65,000 deaths from this awful global pandemic 

[Youth in Asia 1,087]

If it only causes 65,000 deaths (0.1% of the 56m annual deaths worldwide), while also bankrupting half the world's businesses, I would expect people to lynch at least 65,000 politicians and experts. I will go for a figure that would at least be significant on a worldwide scale, and higher than the 3.3m that die annually from TB. So let's say 4m worldwide.

Only 65000 after all of this. Not worth all the effort then. I am going for a walk.

I would estimate that we pass 65,000 deaths within the next 5 days

I had forgot to mention, which was of utmost importance - when I left my home for work March 15 we had a single ‘suspected case’ of C19 in New Iberia.  So all those numbers have been in a 16-day span.

 

Funny what happens when you have Mardi Gras parades in late February!

These are interesting times right enough. Seems some Imperialist tried to attack a hospital ship.... using a train.
