Dinesh D’Souza (the furthest thing from a medical expert) has taken four days of figures to play down the seriousness of this pandemic to his 1.4 million followers. He states that it seems “the death rate has leveled out and that’s very good news.”https://twitter.com/DineshDSouza/status/1246444516766334983 …

He is correct, the projections are all wrong. But this is expected when they use the "worst case scenario" to project for the whole country.
The projections were not worst case scenario. The 100K-240K deaths projection is based off the idea that current social distancing guidelines are maintained. Dinesh’s tweet gives people a false notion that things are getting better, when they aren’t even close.

No - if you are not following the social distancing - it could be that high - projections are just that projections - I could project that you will not get the virus if you follow the rules and you might if you don’t - Personal responsibility goes a long way

Things may not be getting better yet, but they are not as bad as they say. The models say a lot more should be dead by now than there are.

The original projections of 2 million deaths were proven wrong before social distancing started. The author was using old code and admitted it.
