The California state government is projecting that over half the state’s residents are going to get infected with COVID-19 over the next two months.

The Hill:

California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) said in a letter to the Trump administration that 56 percent of the state’s population — 25.5 million people — is projected to be infected with the coronavirus over an eight-week period.

In the letter, Newsom asked President Trump to deploy the USNS Mercy hospital ship to the port of Los Angeles until September of this year “to help decompress our current healthcare delivery system in the Los Angeles region in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.”

Jesse Melgar, a spokesman for the governor, specified that the estimate was without mitigating factors.

That’s a pretty dire projection.

All countermeasures have been too little, too late.

California is in a particularly bad spot considering all of the homeless people they have shitting everywhere.

The whole state is going to look like a scene from the movie Escape from L.A.. The only difference from the movie is that nobody is going to get out alive and everyone is going to die.
