Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

if I had ANY reason to think I might have the virus, I would limit my time outside the house and I'd wear a mask if I was forced to be near anyone else

So, what happens IF (as we all devoutly hope) Georgia and Sweden don't incur some kind of calamity in the coming weeks?  (Not a prediction, simply a possibility.)

I am attempting to track both closely.  The models suggest something pretty close to a calamity, a surge, hospitals being overrun in Sweden, etc.

I know some will claim it as evidence we overreacted, but one could also claim because we overreacted, this was possible.

Or we see a surge and have to shut it down again, which would mean among other things a collapsing stock market and economy and no CFB.

Georgia sure is looking good so far

hope it holds

Birx said 'there is nothing from the CDC that I can trust' in a White House coronavirus task force meeting

That article is an interesting brand of aggregation. Dig through another story, find the spiciest detail and bring it to the forefront with a nice and sensational headline. 

I'm more interested in the why. The explanation is an antiquated system is inflating numbers. I wonder the mechanics of that. 

Depends on how legit the CDC is anymore at this point,every one is a liar except for you and me and I'm not so sure about you

You trust yourself to not be a liar? First step to being the sucker

Georgia sure is looking good so far

hope it holds

One day spike yesterday to 940 new cases.  And yes, there is more testing of course, I'm trying to look at trends rather than single day figures, obviously they bounce a lot.

This does boost the 7 and 10 day MA obv.

This is about the time new cases would be showing up if things are worse because of Kemp's decision.

We need to open up, smartly. States like Illinois were already in financial ruin, and states like Illinois are the ones staying on lockdown. The governor has set goals for opening, that might not ever be reached. This is not smart policy.

There is no reason for cities like Ottawa, IL to be shut down. You want to keep Chicago closed? OK, I can understand that one. These policies are killing small businesses all over the state - the backbone.

In Florida you can go get a haircut starting today. I've learned to cut my own, so no need. A lot of people have done this, I would think, which is gonna put a hurt on hair salons and barber shops.

The barbershops here are by appointment only, and appear to be operating at a much slower rate.  I imagine the salons and nail places are the same.  Most malls have opened, but as noted, hardly anyone is shopping there.  You can "reopen" and find many many people don't play along.

Someone might flip a switch and say "OK, everything is back to normal, everything" and you'd find initially maybe a quarter of the missing activity perked up, and that would diminish if numbers started looking bad.  Initially it would grow of course.

Folks are scared, many folks.  The cruise lines are shut down, I see air travel is 10% normal if that, hotels are shut down.  Even restaurants that are open are barely seeing any diners.  Legal reopening doesn't mean throwing a switch.
