Teams of experts are projecting that COVID-19’s toll on the U.S. will fall sharply by the end of July, according to research released by the government on Wednesday.

But they also warn that a “substantial increase” in hospitalizations and deaths is possible if unvaccinated people do not follow basic precautions such as wearing a mask and keeping their distance from others.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention paper included projections from six research groups. Their assignment was to predict the course of the U.S. epidemic between now and September under different scenarios, depending on how the vaccination drive proceeds and how people behave.

This is a possible scenario.  But Tabitha brings an equally possible scenario up in her post from May 3 in Gestalt #49.  Namely the idea that the # of unvaccinated keeps us below herd immunity, and we have a massive resurgence in the fall/winter.  I believe that is an equally if not more likely scenario.
