Corona Virus Prevention Methods

[FurmAlum]

1. Wash hands thoroughly before drinking your Corona. Should be done at least 10-12 times a day. Dying of Cirrhosis is much preferred over Corona Virus.

2. Follow old Cold War advice for preparing for nuclear attack:
(a) spread your legs
(b) grab both ankles
(c) put head down between your legs
(d) and kiss your ass goodbye

Almost funny. New cases in China have slowed to a trickle. Wonder why the media hasn't widely reported this?

March madness now has a new meaning.

Wonder if the NIT will still go on since the CBI has been cancelled?

[FurmAlum]

I hope so, especially if we are in it. Maybe by having no fans there we could nullify the home court advantage if we had to play Clempson or USC on the road. Sure would hate it for our fans and players if we were to host.

NIT thread says the NIT will take play with no fans. I like that decision meaning I would hate for it to be cancelled for the player’s sake.

They've slowed because China has taken some drastic steps ... steps the U.S. is starting to see. It's going to get worse before it gets better. No doubt about that.

I agree but still doesn't explain why the news media hasn't reprted it. BTW the population of China is 1,408,526,449. They have had just over 80,000 cases. That is .000056 of 1 percent. Of course you won't hear that either. Another perspective is that all the people in China that have the virus out of 1.4 billion is about 16 percent of the Greenville county population. Another 14 million people in China would have to get the virus just to get to one percent. Not saying it isn't serious, it is, but it is a little blown out of proportion.

The media has been reporting this.

Yes, yes and yes. Epidemiologists have been warning of an event like this for years. We should consider covid 19 as a test run. If it means canceling sporting events, vacations etc., then so be it. This concept of globalization and open borders world wide sounds great, but it isn't working when we have some many different countries and cultures with different health standards. If you want to kill the snake, then cut it's head off!

If this is just the warmup and it will be flu seasonal, we certainly can't justify having a Basketball program . Its just too dangerous. Drop the program and give the money to Football.

We can build an open roof over Paladin Stadium for basketball. More fans will attend basketball games than football games.

It's "racist" and "xenophobic" to talk about China. Everyone knows the Corona Virus is Trump's fault.

Where are the tests?

[Furmanoid]

I don’t have much faith in any stats coming out of China. I hope they have it under control but I don’t see how that is possible. Obviously it escaped Wuhan or we wouldn’t have it.
