April 30 may be optimistic. My wife is in healthcare consulting and her firm just got a new state-by-state modeling projection today, and South Carolina COVID-19 cases not expected to peak until late May as I recall and not be down to low levels until mid-July.

Interesting, I live in SC close to the N.C. border of Mecklenburg county, about 12 minute. The Charlotte airport, a major hub, is within this county and cases are now starting to rise. I feel because of the many who commuted for work my area will quickly rise too. Not many tests have been done in N.C. and I assume the same for SC as you can’t find the number which means no one really knows what is going on here. I would be shocked if the peak is late May. I think it will be sooner.

I live just outside of Charlotte also, but just north of the border. The model my wife saw projected NC to peak on April 24 and SC on May 19. The sobering part is projecting 700+ deaths in SC and 2400 in NC by August 3. And those numbers assume that shelter-in-place and stay-at-home orders stay in effect through August. It's just a mathematical model, but sobering nonetheless.

NC would be around 3 weeks, so that makes sense as the numbers are now rising. Upstate SC (York and Lancaster) will probably be in that timeline too as both sides of the border interact lots. SC mid May I could see with areas not so intertwined with Charlotte. Hopefully the mathematical model is wrong but with the high number of retirees in the area the risk is here.

I’m assuming the August 3rd date was based on the analysis done by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington’s School of Medicine in Seattle. Anyone can view their projections for each state using the dropdown at the top. It’s defaulted to “United States of America“ - https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections

Those numbers look similar to the PDF I saw, but not identical, so they may be from the same data set or a similar model.

Where was NY? I’d also hope the warmer climate has an effect on the virus keeping the projections lower. I’m sure they accounted for that

If you go to the link @alwysonvac posted above you can get that model's estimates for any state.

Got it thank you!!!
