>> It’s only 30% more patients if the number of people are being infected stays constant.
>> As the R rate drops below 1 that’s not the case...
Doesn't matter what the R is, it's relative. For a given R, you're (depending whether the observations are a trend) going to et 30% more deaths, and if the hospital death rate is the same that equals 30% more cases. Rather a house of cards of assumptions.
