I present to you, coronavirus, the Washington, DC story.
The big surge is always two weeks away. The peak is always next month. Trust the "experts," the big surge is definitely coming! Brace for impact!

Just got the latest update from the DC COVID dashboard. They are currently using about 8.5% of their total COVID capacity in the healthcare system. There was never a significant jump in hospitalizations, ever.

Have to get people to fear the future when the present isn't what you said it would be, and if you keep it going long enough, you'll perhaps one day end up right. https://t.co/tVNrYMHt9l

It’s the climate change alarmists’ approach, just divided into shorter increments of time (2 weeks instead of 10 years).
