Again - Reading comprehension seems to be a serious problem for some on this board.

@spjunkies - Reading comprehension, it's a thing.

If there is no season, I believe so. However if there is no college football season then each teams scouting departments are going to have a major challenge accurately assessing prospects. I imagine the number of 1st and 2d round busts will spike for that class, while lower rounds and FAs will have more diamonds in them than usual.

Who did the Giants take????

I posted some great parenting advise in today's Stadium's "Redskins trade out of 2d pick thread" probably would have been more appropriate here. Being April fools thought it would a good to gin up a message from the Governor saying this years school would not count so it would be repeated for all grades come August. Daughter had a fit.

Turning???? I think that boat sailed a couple of years back.

Not my study I just said I hope they were right. Pure conjecture on first question but here goes - maybe they are spiking now because we are just now identifying/reacting to COVID19 and previous pneumonia hospitalizations weren't ID'd as COVID19 (Basically it was lost in the seasonal flu hospitalizations which have been worse than normal this year)???? As for the 2d question that is a bit easier they need to check for anti-bodies not COVID19 additionally they aren't checking most people who are not sick. BTW even if this Oxford study is wrong, checking for anti-bodies would be a good idea anyway as it would free up those people to return to work. Yep maybe.

Well here is something interesting. It would be great news if this turns out to be correct. Financial Times: https://www.ft.com/content/5ff6469a-6dd8-11ea-89df-41bea055720b?segmentId=b385c2ad-87ed-d8ff-aaec-0f8435cd42d9 The new coronavirus may already have infected far more people in the UK than scientists had previously estimated — perhaps as much as half the population — according to modelling by researchers at the University of Oxford. If the results are confirmed, they imply that fewer than one in a thousand of those infected with Covid-19 become ill enough to need hospital treatment, said Sunetra Gupta, professor of theoretical epidemiology, who led the study. The vast majority develop very mild symptoms or none at all. “We need immediately to begin large-scale serological surveys — antibody testing — to assess what stage of the epidemic we are in now,” she said. The modelling by Oxford’s Evolutionary Ecology of Infectious Disease group indicates that Covid-19 reached the UK by mid-January at the latest. Like many emerging infections, it spread invisibly for more than a month before the first transmissions within the UK were officially recorded at the end of February..........

He traded 3.2 for a lower 3rd and then likely retraded acquired picks.

I thought he he said all elective procedures were suspended (Medical supply related)? Should he have said all elective procedures except abortions were suspended? Look at how that would have been viewed if done that way in New York.

Unfortunately she did (poured would be a better verb though). But in her defense I imagine it would be only that very rare politician that wouldn't try to take advantage of a situation like this. Even Bush (W) (who I like) did with 9-11 and Obama did with the great recession.

The US has more ICU beds per capita so are better positioned to provide critical care for those needing it.

Perfection is the enemy of good enough.

That line of thinking has already been expressed in the US.

How the hell are they going to be able to use Georgiou in a section 31 spinoff given where she ended up in Discovery (Is Dr Who going to intervene?).

disregard.

Harriet. Biographical piece on Harriet Tubman. Give it a solid A.

From what I've read and been briefed COVID-19 becoming endemic is the bigger worry than the overall death rate. It is likely when all is said and done the death rate probably will be closer to the regular seasonal flu than the 1918 flu pandemic, but like you said if it becomes endemic you get that repeated every year. So you are going to get away from fall weather to just go to a town with fall weather year round? One of my favorite cities BTW.

Just got through a bad week of having something. (Caught it from the Mrs who had it the week prior). Day 1 - scratchy throat, chest tickle and congestion in upper sinus; Day 2 - A total flood of snot - initially thought a Noahs Ark might be needed to save life on Earth; Day 3 suddenly dries up - must be on the mend; Day 4 - Boy was I wrong - coughing fits galore - very dry coughing and wheezing leads to headaches; Day 5 (Today)- much better some residual coughing seem to be on the mend; Day 6 ? Thing is I never had a fever and of course all the early snot eliminates Covid 19. So just my worst cold ever maybe?

This new Covid 19 is not really dangerous to kids. The grand total of children under 10 that have died from it (many have had it including a new born) is 0. 2d check the symptoms of what ever you have. I've been sick all this week with all the symptoms plus 1. Wasn't worried that I have it because I have had an extremely runny nose. Covid 19 cases seem to be very telling in that they don't have runny noses.

Well, to be honest I kinda stepped into the deep end with my post above. Completely out of my depth. Thanks for the response.

I wonder if Coronaviruses could be susceptible to asymmetric competitive suppression. If so if you already have a corona virus (ie a cold) this new one may not be able to infect you until you get rid of the old one. Of course protection would be of very limited duration. https://bmcmicrobiol.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1471-2180-8-28 ......However, in the vaccinia system, when one strain infects four hours after the other (superinfection), replication of the second strain is suppressed, and with a ten-hour lag time between infections, the second strain is unable to replicate at all (superinfection exclusion).....

I think it needs repeating that for those under 50 the risk (if caught) is less than if one caught the flu. And for those 51-60 it is about the same as the flu. It's just after 60 that things start to get worse than the flu (and substantially worse for those over 80 - almost 22% of confirmed cases). And oh yeah for you parents with young ones - to date kids are almost totally immune to this Corona Virus.

Something that also needs to be considered is that 2/3d of the critical cases/deaths in China are men and 1/3 Women. 50% of men smoke in China while only 3% of women do. So I'd make the assumption that smokers are significantly more vulnerable to this virus and since we have fewer smokers our death rate will likely be lower.
