WOW you know who you sound like? The high predictions were if we did absolutely nothing. No sane person expected we would do nothing. It took some of the nutcases a month or so to finally realize that.
Some of the predictions with SD were also WAY off. Also, while Sweden is showing that SD was needed, it is also not reaching anywhere close to the magnitude of those forecasts.

Sweden also had less than 10% of people with anti-bodies. If you extrapolate their numbers per million, and consider they are nowhere near done yet, I don't think the "millions" is so ridiculously far-fetched. Consider that with all our restrictions, our first wave reached 100k (and counting). If you look at the magnitude of second waves in comparison to first waves, I don't think 1 million US deaths is completely out of the question before we're all done. I don't think it will happen, because science is not what it was by other pandemics, but I don't think it can be dismissed as absurd, either.

The problem is there were 100's if not K's of different predictions. Many of the main ones were in the ballpark if not spot on. It is hard to make a prediction with SD when you don't know what compliance there will be.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Yes, but why is one which overestimates by many magnitudes better that one which overestimates? Neither one is the truth. When one is censored and one is not that shows bias. The free speech allowing the lows to counteract the highs would mostly balance it out to the mioddle.

We both know unfortunately it doesn't work that way.

"some extent" = very little.  ;)
Enough OT so you can have the last word.

Again we are in galus. Protesting is one of the least mature things I've heard. Prob even worse than cutting locks on parks.

And in this case not too bright. How will blocking traffic in Lakewood force the hand of New York's Governor?

It won't. But it may alleviate some of that pent up restlessness that would normally be released during color war.

All these people made zero peeps when the rallies were about BLM.
You are correct but isn't the opposite true. Many complained about some BLM protesters not wearing masks but not a peep here.

No one cared that they weren't wearing masks, hence no one complained about it.
People complained that the same politicians weren't enforcing wearing masks there, yet enforcing business closures, shul etc. And yes, playgrounds.
