I hope this is a game-changer on that.

Can't tell you how many times I've been disgusted by people who leave the men's room without doing so. Even now, I've seen a few. Sickening.

And... no more buffets!! Bonus!!
Dammit.

I live in a plays famous for a really good kind of buffet, and DAMMIT I want that back.

So, what can be done realistically?  Shut'er down again?  I don't see that happening, even if the rates triple from here.  We wade through it?

I think we could have some stay at home orders for folks over 65.

It was better than the day prior for FL. Tuesday was highest count ever, but was much lower on Monday (of course).

Positivity rate is hovering at around 4 percent, which is up a little.

Deaths are way down. 6 people died Tuesday, bringing the total to 3,018.

Illinois had 87 deaths on Tuesday, bringing its total to 6,507.

This is:


MADISON, Wis. – The outline for college football to return this fall has been laid out.

Late Wednesday evening, the NCAA Division I Council approved the Division 1 Football Oversight Committee’s recommendation for summer athletic activities and preseason practice for the upcoming 2020 season.

No orders. Strongly encourage old folks over 65 and those with weakened immune systems to stay home, but don't force anyone to do shit. Literally 74% of coronavirus deaths were 65 or older. Another 23%+ were those 45 or older. Less than 1% of deaths were 0-18 years old. And not even 3% were 18 to 44.

We stop being a bunch of little pussy ass pansies and power through it. That's what we do.

I think there is no real choice but to protect the vulnerable to the extent rational, encourage people to wear face masks when in crowds and stay home if mildly sick, and get on with it.  Sweden was not a catastrophe.

I would imagine most are asymptomatic, or with light symptoms.  Eight is a large number obviously.

It is very possible teams early in the schedule will be missing important players who test +.

From the story, it appears it was a blanket test of 130 players, not due to any single specific player being symptomatic. So it wouldn't surprise me if all 8 were asymptomatic, at least at the time of the test. 

The story wasn't clear on the matter, though.

There is asymptomatic and presymptomatic (and false positives at times).  They will have to be screened daily I suspect.  As noted here by others, young people off on their own still engage in various and sundry.  Imagine if Justin Fields gets it in September.

And some teams might be playing without half their starters, it's possible.
