So the new IHME model, run on the 5th, has lowered the predicted US deaths by 4 August. The error bars have been tightened a bit too, but still are pretty large:
covid19.healthdata.org

They explain in their release:

New IHME COVID-19 Forecasts Find Lower Hospital Bed Need, Epidemics starting to peak confirm social distancing works

From the article:

IHME forecasts 81,766 deaths, with a range between 49,431 and 136,401

Trump and GOP governors will attempt to take credit when the only reason the numbers will be that low is Democratic governors and local politicians took actions they wouldn’t.
