OT: Coronavirus VI: Keep it on Topic and Off of Politics, Politics Are Ruining These Threads (See OP)

When Covid is over the Supergirl gifs go with it.

This sounds like a declaration of war.

The Supergirl gifs are the reason Covid started, not the wet markets.

I thought it was because of sunspots.

you could literally say the same thing about going to get gas, or liquor, or going to a grocery store

golf is the ultimate social distancing game (especially my game, which is played in the bush more often lol)
hell, have 1 golfer per cart

Groceries and gas are obviously essential. Liquor is allowed to be essential because alcoholics flood the healthcare system while in withdrawal.

Golf could not be less important than those things. There's nothing I can think of less important than a private persons ability to go golfing.

Apparently Emily has made a few speeches like that during this crisis.

This is a pattern. These poorly run facilities are Death Traps. I really hope the care in Elder-Care Homes improves due to this outbreak.

"According to the latest inspection report from August 2019, Medicare.gov gave the facility one out of five stars overall."

Thanks for posting this article. I read last week we thought 25%-50% of those with the virus were asymptomatic. Today’s information from Iceland confirms this number is closer to 50%.
That raises a lot of questions. Maybe I missed it, but I’d like to know what the age groups (and how healthy these people were) who didn’t show symptoms.

One sick person goes golfing, person cleaning the cart accidentally contaminates their glove taking it off, goes home and gives Covid to their wife who works at a Senior's Lodge. Then we do this shit all over again.

Golf courses are open out here in the GVRD. I drove past one yesterday in Surrey and it was packed.

I am aware golf isn’t essential
But you can still get sick from “essential” services

Sure but the reason they stay open is because they are essential. I cant believe we are defending golfing now....lol. Open them up but then just admit we are opening up everything else now too.

For the first time ever, I momentarily got excited about Golf.

I never said to open golf courses, relax

I thought that asymptomatic people were testing negative, and it wasn’t until they had symptoms that a positive result could be achieved. At least that’s what I had read a few weeks ago. Has this changed or have tests always been able to determine if you have the virus, symptoms or not?

Poll: Fans won't attend games without vaccine

Just a warning this early morn that the site has the dreaded autoplay video function for commercials and I didn't have volume down. Just woke up the wife..

Its going to take awhile for people to get over this. Even the choices they make IF they go to games. For instance will they go to concessions? You want that food and drink that has been touched by a lot of gig employees that get paid minimum wage, poor job standards, limited breaks and that get fired in mass, repeatedly, because some middle manager that never even met anybody feels its time to clean shop again?

For decades in anycase I said lets stop building arena's stadiums. Lets make do with what we have, the pro sports entertainment wave is over. It was inevitable at some point we were going to shift into a different reality brought on by hardship. Where such things as glitz, glamor, revitalization don't matter, When human focus again is not on building babylons, but on survival.

Virtually every major city has all these Arena/Stadia sports palaces now and essentially what for? So that we could have a few moments thinking Working Class Edmonton is something different than it is?

I mean theses sports palaces are visually attractive, the districts are posh. But I can't justify the expense of these and the vast majority of people can't afford it. For sure in an era of just trying to hang on and paying for pandemic society can't afford this tinsel.

Wouldn't surprise me if Calgary pulls the plug on the new arena plan. Wouldn't surprise me if a lot of teams even go broke.

Didnt say you specifically were.

Lots of people are.

Relax.

The article seems to state that you can test positive while asymptomatic. This article seems to confirm this.

Also South Korea has drive thru testing that confirms positive/negative results in 15 minutes. I think we need to start demanding answers as to why we aren’t doing this here. No reporters are asking these questions. Why is that?

You have it partially right. The power of the sun spots was focused through 5G towers, which were allowed to align properly because we're shaking the Earth less.

I don’t know the answer to that. I didn’t see it in the article.
