season late start.
-
My cousin in Uniontown and her daughter are battling it now, and a former coworker of my fiancée's died from it last week. She worked at a nursing home in Akron.
Scary times.
-
My daughter and her husband think they may have had it after returning from Disneyworld (Thanksgiving) considering the international clientele there, especially from China and Japan. She had a 3 week long chest & fatigue thingy and he about a week long. If we ever get more widespread anti-body testing, she intends to insist upon it with her MD.
They are saying almost all of the cases on the east coast are from Europe. Not China. And in Florida they are mainly from snowbirds from New York.

Well who knows how she got it, but clearly she had something that strongly resembles it within a couple of weeks of our family celebration of my wife's and my 50th anniversary there over Thanksgiving. And she had had her flu shot so she did not think that was it.

I hope they cancel the season. I don't see it being safe to huddle up 60,000 people. So much for social distancing.

It definitely seems wild to me-I know you won't find me at a stadium. I thought okay, maybe you limit seating but how the hell would you do that? Disney is talking about only letting in 50% capacity. Just seems like it's a "no crowds" situation this season if they do play.

The problem that all the sport leagues are having is the perception (reality?) of privilege. In order to play, even without fans, they will all need to be tested for the virus on a continuous basis. This in a nation where now only like 1% have been able to get a test due to dilatory administrative action. While I personally would not really object to the athletes receiving this "Privilege" it still is not a good look when you have over 60,000 people dying from this in less than 2 months. We all need to have more, better testing. But should hundreds of thousands be deprived of any tests, where a thousand or so are "privileged" to be tested continuously if they should begin play.

50% is way too high...
A stadium... start with every other row then go every third seat and whala... 1/6th the seating capacity get your seated distancing. Then:
- Make all concessions deleivery to seat to avoid concession stand lines.
-
Make bathroom use by appointment only...
-
no fans will probably happen. per fauci

Yeah, this is certainly something I've thought about. I suppose football is easiest based on amount of times they play, but still not easy. In all seriousness though, assuming in the next 3 months we can mass produce tests, I'm okay with that being a thing athletes get. We need something to bring us all together, and we sports can be that thing.

Yeah, for sure but who gets priority? The only thing that makes sense to me is like boxes are still available for the rich and then a random lottery every week. Season ticket holders get a guaranteed ticket or refund, which I'm guessing most would take.

Well, as distrustful as I am of them, Pence, more frequently than his direct superior will sometimes tell you something factual. And he said that part of the big issue is not so much getting the tests done......but in getting the tests processed. You can have a test kit, and do the swab...or whatever it is that they do to take the test; but then that has to be analyzed. And anyone who has had any test taken in a doctor's office which was then sent to a lab for processing can tell you how often it is that receiving those test results can be delayed. The same here. With these sports franchises it is almost like they have to have their own personal, private testers, and lab analyzers to get the results in an expedited manner to allow play to proceed...and continue. Ergo, the "privilege" perception. Again, I don't mind if that were to happen....if they had their own private lab to do those things at their own costs. But again, the perception would be one of how the "elitists" in this society would be entitled to those excessive privileges. I could smack of the old "let them eat cake" mentality.

I'm just glad Taysom Hill will be a TE/Flex in ESPN leagues! Now he can be irrelevant at a new position.

my cousin was down for about three weeks and spent a a couple of days in the hospital with the systems of covid in February. they never tested for it. she went a couple of weeks ago to check if she had any antibodies and p possibly giving plasma. they checked here and told her she never had covid. just a bad flu.

This administration is a absolute dumpster fire with that said serology testing should be available soon (private section ftw! lol!) I honestly think I got it in very late FEB after drinking in many dive bars for my b-day. Had the worst cough of my fucken life and thought it was caused by allergys . This cough was so bad I slept in my basement because it has a very old recliner, I could not physically lay down without coughing a fit and was having pain in my chest unless I was stationary. It felt like I had a bowling ball on my chest. So here I'm lying on this old piece of shit for over two weeks in my moldy basement. Fucked up thing I think I gave it to my brother on March 9th watching Onward with the kids in Kent (thank god they are safe). He had what he thought was a terrible "FLU" but everything was shut down on by the 12. PS it took like 5 weeks to get over my cough.

Did you not elect to go to a doctor? As I understand it, with this virus you do not have any mucus/phlegm discharge with it. So it could very well be that you had it. And were lucky to recover. Good for you. Now, go donate some plasma to help others.

I missed this when you first posted it. That is some bona fide LOL material.

The only test less reliable than the virus test may be the antibody test... at least some of them. The best are unproven while the worst are outright scams.
