How many cases and deaths can the United States expect in the Delta-driven surge? Many computer models predict case counts will peak sometime between mid-August and early September. That peak may bring as many as 450,000 daily cases, according to forecasters at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington. IHME’s models have drawn controversy throughout the pandemic and other groups are more conservative: The COVID-19 Forecast Hub predicts the daily case count on 21 August will be somewhere between 29,000 and 176,000, using a range of estimates from 41 different models.
IHME researchers forecast a peak of about 1000 deaths a day in mid-September, and a total of 76,000 additional deaths by 1 November. But if 95% of the people in the United States wore masks, their model predicts, 49,000 of those lives would be saved. Americans, including young and healthy people, should not underestimate this variant, warns Ali Mokdad, an IHME epidemiologist. “Delta is a nasty one,” he says. ----------------------------------------------------- US experts looking at daily cases 450k and 1000 deaths at the peak of this Delta wave !!
If the U.S. does not get control over community spread of the delta COVID variant, the nation will continue to see more variants that evade the protection of the vaccines, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to the White House.
Myinvestor, thks for the info. With 32 billion capacity, it is equivalent to kossan capacity. That means in 2H , Supermx earning will be 1.5x of kossan . The additional 50 % will come mainly from supermx distribution earning. ------------------------
PJ Seow, thanks for your updates. It could be 30-32b capacity if u include lot38, Sg buloh. 1.19

Debt to cash ratio comparison of top stocks Supermax : 0.078 TG: 0.1106 Harta:0.029 Mrdiy:18.74 Genting:1.56 GenM : 4.30
The higher debt to cash ratio meaning it will takes longer time to recover from debt. For GenM will takes about 4 1/2 years to be debt free. Worst one is Mrdiy, it will takes 18 years to cover its debts. Investors should take note of this important ratio.
Gloves stocks price keep on dropping like this is raising doubt that covid-19 variants spread all over the world as more cases increase demand for gloves will decrease or don't need gloves anymore. LOL
yup SOTB, everyone knows Delta is out of control worldwide. Just look at the current global surge of daily new cases and hospitalization/deaths. In 2 months time, we will be staring at a gloomy situation worldwide but esp US, UK and Europe will face their fall and winter surge. And as Fauci said, he expects a new variant to emerge that is more transmissible than Delta but totally evade current vaccines. We are at the threshold where vaccines are being seriously challenged and mankind will once again face uncertainty going forward. Only certainty is that gloves will continue to protect frontliners and protect humanity.
As of 06/08/21…buyers/sellers agreed price at rm3.10 (settlement). Everyone agree glove companies are great and making profit….but classic eg of great companies with lots of cash with low share price.
Our market not that advanced and less money flow in. If no rss, jpm not interested in bursa At least with rss, got some small kfc for jpm.
Boston Why must ban RSS??? Without RSS, price confirm higher??? Next time you buy share, check whether is it inside the rss list or not. 06/08/2021 6:15 PM
@SinGor Quarter Results if Good should be announced this week...pushing to next week means management need to adjust many things to make results look Good 06/08/2021 6:20 PM
Maybe delay could be due to Stanley last minute decided to increase the cash dividend? Or maybe due to sudden increase of ASP in locked in orders in the last few days, make him amend the QR notes to include them.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
