“Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday that models suggest the coronavirus will infect millions of Americans and could kill 100,000–200,000, though he stressed that the projections are "such a moving target."
Why it matters: Fauci has been the coronavirus task force's most outspoken advocate for emergency social distancing measures to stop the spread of the coronavirus, sometimes contradicting President Trump's more optimistic outlook.”


Dr. Fauci is doing all he can to convince people to follow guidelines which are designed to minimize or at least slow down infection rate of this virus. The numbers provided are probably not the best or worst estimates. If people don't limit their exposure and others the numbers may very well look worse.
