That’s about 12,000 fewer deaths — and 121,000 fewer hospital beds — than the model estimated on Thursday. A “massive infusion of new data” led to the adjustments, according to the model’s maker, Dr. Christopher Murray, who serves as director of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington School of Medicine.”
