300,000 people could die from COVID-19 infections by April 2023 and 1.6 million people could die by the end of the year.

“Infections are steeply on the rise and hospitals are overwhelmed. It’s quite [certain] that the situation is spiraling out of control, at least in Beijing and other big cities,” said Björn Alpermann, a sinologist at the University of Würzburg in Germany.

A prominent epidemiologist, Eric Feigl-Ding, tweeted that the situation was “thermonuclear bad.”

Feigl-Ding predicted “over 60% of China’s and 10% of the Earth’s population likely infected over the next 90 days. Deaths likely in the millions — plural.”
