Some science ... when you look at a model that is of interest to you, you should look also at the uncertainties associated with model. Especially projections going further in time. The ones I've seen related to COVID-19 have uncertainties that grow very very fast the farther out you go. Those uncertainties are as important, if not more important, than the central trend line that often gets reported.
If a model is of interest to you, it's probably because it was reported. Strong biases rest with the media who tend to make stories more sensational than things really are.
Finally, if the model is of interest to you, try to google the source behind the model or try to find a source not giving a biased, sometimes even out of context report.

Who is Cheryl Tiegs, grandpa?
Wow, maybe at least a Kathy Ireland reference, or Kate Upton for the youngins."We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm."

Young man, she wore the see-through bathing suit in the late 70's. Hot.

I, too, am a fan of Cheryl Tiegs.
We've come a long way since my bench seat at the Fieldhouse!

Based on faulty modelling, and the economy closing for the past 2 months, my company eliminated my position today.

Oh DAMN!
My son’s fiancé was laid off weeks ago from her group sales position in Atlanta. Not a lot of giant conventions coming to town any time soon. Never saw THIS coming, but it’s time to pivot. Had a great gig, now need to figure out Plan B.
For your sake and so many other people, I pray we can get rolling again quickly. Fingers crossed!
