    Coincidentally matches the timing of large, lengthy, packed like sardines BLM / Anarchist protests & riots.

    Yes, asymptomatic positives... generally young and healthy. Deaths and hospitalizations consistently down in most areas.
  • COVID-19
    Hard to keep up with the MSM contradictions.

    Churchgoers, Trump rallies = bad.

    Burning churches, thousands of rioters & looters shoulder to shoulder for hours = good.

    Last I read hospitalizations and deaths still consistently dropping. The virus appears to be weakening.

    The Maier - Doss combo was special... time to reload.

    I believe Berkeley is conducting small group student-athlete workouts.

    Alleged racism.

    How about the title, "Senior Graduating Gymnasts don't Want Senior Night spoiled by selfish Politics."

    So she got over $100,000 in college scholarship money, Davis was key in getting her into Vet school, but the program is racist?
  • COVID-19
    How about half a season length, 100% playoffs, single elimination, playoff structure for a true national champion? FBS & FCS. One warmup match.
  • COVID-19
    The fatality rate for those under 30 is phenomenally low. I don't have it at hand, but I was looking at a graphic for Covid deaths ... primarily over 70 (with comorbidities), and even more pronounced over 80 years of age.

    Contra Costa County currently has only 16 Covid patients in the hospital, and the peak was 47?

    The State budget will take a massive hit, and Garcetti is talking about keeping LA County shut down another 3 months?

    From Patrick Moore, one of the original founders of Greenpeace who left the organization. Food for thought. Great twitter feed.

    "Clear evidence that countries with lockdowns had higher mortality from Coronavirus than countries that did not. Also warm countries tended to have lower mortality even though they had fewer resources. Open the economy - save lives!"

    The NFL, NBA, & MLB putting out tentative plans for holding contests.
  • COVID-19
    Both Cuomo and Newsom seemed to have the same approach - protect the young and healthy, and insert elders infected with CCP19 Virus into nursing homes. Dunno. Seems kinda backwards.

    Very, very sad.

    Define experts? Even the CDC didn't advise us on wearing masks until April 3rd.

    I believe we need more data & facts & pragmatism, not hysteria & politics. Our national numbers are being especially driven by New York and other urban areas - not Big Sky geography. But politics may push a uniform approach.

    FWIW, I don't believe we shut down the Far West Conference for the Hong Kong Flu in 1968.

    Potential large gatherings in New York, New Orleans or Detroit are another matter.

    Hallowed Dr. Fauci even downplayed masks and 'silent carriers'. The CDC didn't advise us to wear masks until April 3rd.
  • San Jose game out?
    And you played the race card, similiar to how Joe Biden called our President a xenophobe for shutting down travel from China at the end of January. (Biden had to apologize, and everyone else ignores that that one decision easily saved tens of thousands of American lives.)

    I agree, but let's not uncritically anoint any scientist or supposedly impartial agency as god.

    We were told this virus would exponentially grow every 1-2 days - wrong. The WHO and its possibly corrupt leader kept us in the dark for over a month while shielding China. Dr. Fauci said there was nothing to worry about in February and March, and now some see him as devine.

    There are some liberals who have said we need these lock down measures for months or years longer, while simultaneously wanting the Federal Government to print them more money. Jerry Brown and his administration depleted our previous emergency stockpile of ventilators, hospital beds, large mobile hospitals (3) and PPE equipment.

    Last I checked San Francisco had 19 deaths - 19 deaths - but they may lose up to 50% of their small restaurants. Will there be a cascading effect with other small businesses, commercial & residential real estate? Drug overdoses are way up.

    NPR: Coronavirus Is Contagious, But Kids Seem Less Vulnerable So Far

    "As the case count of coronavirus infections continues to rise in China, the number of reported infections among children is remarkably low.

    "We're seeing [about] 75,000 total cases at this point, but the literature is only reporting about 100 or so pediatric cases," says Terri Lynn Stillwell, a pediatric infectious disease expert at Mott Children's Hospital at the University of Michigan."

    Please save your troglodyte name calling for someone else.

    Not political? For many it is. It is at least for the politicians & mainstream media. Nancy Pelosi has held up funding several times to load up Corona CCP Virus funding bills with unrelated Pork.

    Democrats and the media are attacking the President while they defend China!! Defend China? China: 1) hid critical information for over 4 weeks; 2) closed down travel from Wuhan, but allowed them to travel internationally - infecting the world (not Beijing or Shanghai); 3) bought up over $2 Billion worth of PPE during the gap; and 4) still has deadly wet markets.

    HCQ & Zinc is an interesting case study. It is cheap (generic), well known, and safe - with a 4-decade track record treating lupus & malaria. Now it receives odd put downs and a supposed negative critique - from a whacky study. The press jumped all over it. Why? Because the President said it may be helpful?

    Governor Cuomo has been having fancy press conferences for weeks patting himself on the back - meanwhile his Health Department mandated that released Covid-infected seniors go back to rest homes! Maybe this is just incompetence, I don't blame them for the apparent subway transmission issue. But this nursing home situation is appalling; same for not acquiring any of the 16,000 ventilators his emergency task force recommended he acquire in 2015.
