More than 1,000 immigrants in United States' Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody have tested positive for coronavirus, according to the agency’s latest statistics.
Doctor who revised down US death projection says he was "pretty surprised" by his modelDr. Christopher Murray, director of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, told CNN Monday night that he was “pretty surprised” by his model’s downward revision.
“I must say, we were pretty surprised, Anderson. We were expecting them to probably go up because of a big surge in mobility in the last two, three weeks that we’ve seen in the cell phone data,” Murray said on “Anderson Cooper 360” when asked about the new forecast. Murray had previously explained upticks in the model’s projections by pointing to mobility data. The thinking had been that as people move around more, they’ll come into contact with more people and create opportunities for transmission.
“Our explanation for that is if you dig a little bit deeper, and look into the fraction of the population in different states that are wearing masks, we think that’s really the key difference there -- both their behavior and mask wearing.”
