Ivy League schools cancel all Fall sports.

Dumber conferences soon to follow.

No basketball for them either

I'm moving into the pickle ball phase of life.

It's the summer of pickle ball at my house.

I am trying to get the wife to make it the summer of tickle pickle but she isn’t having it

Those are activities, not sports.

As someone who wrestled, it is more of a sport than others. Not the scripted stuff either, but olympic style.

It's a great game that everyone can play.

There are literally hundreds of websites with factual, scientific info that dispute your ridiculous claim.

I suppose it is your right to be as uninformed as you wish

Again, you disputed nothing so I suppose it is your right to just fall in line with whatever the media tells you without questioning it. Enjoy!

Dumber conferences soon to follow.

I predict if they don't play football, Democrats are to blame. Democrats, WHO, and China are in cahoots perpetuating the Coronavirus hoax in a diabolical scheme to hurt America's economy and take down Trump. Some variation of that anyway.

 

[hUTch2002]

Thanks. Appreciate the info.

Today the lethargy hit hard and I napped for about three hours, woke up covered in sweat with some chest congestion. Fever has stayed low grade, between 99-100. I just feel run down constantly, like I have no energy at all. I’m taking aspirin for the fever and loading in the vitamins.

I’m pretty sure I can ride this out without going to the doctor as long as it doesn’t get significantly worse.

SIAP. Where do you think you got it? Have you worn a mask habitually when in public or no?

 

[hUTch2002]

Yep those European countries are open and we aren't allowed to travel there because our response has been so pathetic.

Yep, Cuomo has definitely sucked. Can’t disagree there. Whitmer too.

 

[hUTch2002]

We shouldn't lock ourselves in a bunker.

There's no credibility in using Trump as a source because he has no credibility. The survival rate is 95%. I bet even a low IQ guy like yourself can do simple percentage calculation

Yesterday I pulled data and compares deaths to total cases for the prior 7 days and the death rate was 1.2%. I then looked at rolling 7 day periods going back to the start and last week was the highest 7-day case count going back to the beginning and the lowest number of deaths for any 7-day period.

By “criteria for obtaining the test,” I meant “who gets tested?”

Going to the ED or your PCP with flu-like symptoms in 2018 did not necessarily mean you were getting tested for flu. Particularly for pediatric care providers, but in my experience, that extends to healthy adults and even some unhealthy adults.

Also the ratio of people seeking treatment for the flu, a common illness with a fairly well established and low rate of negative outcomes, is probably going to be lower than for a novel illness with nonstop news coverage about how scary and deadly it is.

I’m sure there are similar difficultIt’s with precisely quantify Covid cases, but we extrapolate flu numbers for a reason. Until we know enough to do the same with COVID, it’s a bad comparison in either direction. And when we get to the point where we can do that, the comparison probably becomes superfluous.

2019 flu was a particularly nasty strain last year. 103 fever, body aches, coughing. If you show up symptomatic like that you will be tested for flu from Nov to April. You can ask @kiddiedoc about smaller individuals. I didn't treat little ones.

Just added my "later Losers" out of office message and we are headed on a little roadtrip to the Land of Plagues also known as Florida

Have fun. Not sure what part you're going to but most places have signs that say you must wear a mask, but they didn't really enforce it in the Orlando area

 

[newyorkvol]

So....I was just listening to Anderson Cooper and Dr Osterholm talking about the new WHO statement that the virus can be contracted via aerosol. And now masks do actually apparently keep the wearer safe and not just preventing the wearer from infecting others. Weird.

SIAP. Where do you think you got it? Have you worn a mask habitually when in public or no?

One of the kids friends tested positive (their whole family) and we were all up playing dominos one night last week. My wife and kid got tested as well.

I wear a mask regularly when I go out anywhere.

Over 800 COVID deaths today in the US, a three-fold increase overy it was this past weekend. Is Clay Travis out there pumping sunshine still?
