    How might Covid impact sports longterm

    What do you think this pandemics impacts to the sporting world will be? When this is all behind us, do people rush back in and resume consuming sports like they did before? It seems likely live events may take a huge prolonged hit, will they recover? What emerging trends do you see, it has...

    Yes, this is exactly correct. That’s one of many reasons I started looking at the death rate charts, because it became apparent that there was far more variability and unknowns in how the infected rates are determined. Some states their have been far more testing than others. In the US there...

    I started using death rate as the best guage of disease spread probably 2 or 3 weeks ago. I look at but don’t put too much stock in the infection rate. Because there are so many variables in testing, unknowns such as subclinical rate, etc. But most deaths by/with covid are known. So it is...

    This is my opinion piece: I think covid is serious. I’ve seen the medical evidence and all the evidence shows it to be a highly contagious, and relatively lethal disease. Certainly there are some parameters to the model that change the absolute death rate, but it’s undeniable the overwhelming...

    Might you just photoshop it anyway?? Just sayin!! From my personal experience people accuse others of what’s on their mind already. If they are liars they accuse others of lying. Cheaters accuse others of cheating. If they are photoshoppers they accuse others of photoshopping.

    Has Trade with China helped or hurt the US?

    Wouldn’t the best metric be % wage increase. Increase/prior wage. So $4 increase on $40 wage would be 10% and $2 increase on $20 wage would also be 10% but effectively the effect of change would be more similar on a % vs $ basis? Seems like the more meaningful way to measure wage increases.

    Two things can be true at the same time. 1) This disease is serious, and causing lots of severe health problems, i and many people in health care are seeing this directly. 2) But equally true is that I very much disagree with a huge swath of what the government has and will do in response to...

    Even if true for coronavirus, if there is ongoing risk then you get a booster at specified intervals to reinforce your immunity. Think Tetanus booster every 10 years. As far as coronavirus goes, there is an area on it’s receptor that’s had been very stable across the different variants over...

    I’m sure you are going to see lots of lawsuits after this is over challenging the legality of a lot of what happened. Not that I put a lot of faith in the courts in today’s world. It’s largely a crapshoot based on the political ideology of the judge. A similar example of this type of...

    I would say my perspective is the disease is still very scary, the stats still look bad, New York has a significant problem and is likely going to have a long time before they can get back completely to normal. But there are patterns of higher and lower risk areas we can identify and work on...

    I would say in general @Kak and I agree on most things, but also I want to point out that it’s way way early to be calling the end of this. You know that all the new projections of ~100,000 deaths is based on the assumption that this quarantine lasts well into August? The models still project...

    exactly. My brother owns a salon, one of the top in the country actually. Awarded salon of the year 2 years ago in the US. He is in Utah, the state isn’t on lockdown. He shut his doors because people quit coming to work and people were canceling in droves. He usually has a 3 month wait...

    I’ve been tempted to try and get the antibody test kits. It seems lots of people believe they have been exposed And recovered early in the year. I’m not sure what the kits cost but probably 20-150 a pop. Probably have to buy 10-50 I’m guessing. If any Scottsdale/AZ people might be interested in...

    It’s in Italian so I can’t read it, but the claim itself that the high death rate is because of that is nonsense. Being exposed intentionally or unintentionally does not specifically increase your risk of death, it increases the risk of contracting the infection to begin with. Risk of death is...

    Yes, they have to test negative for the virus itself and be symptom free 14 days before they can donate. Also in the past we also had body weight restrictions, I don’t remember what it is, but in the USA few people’s body weight is low enough for this to be an issue Yes, your body is...

    Something I ran across, and will help greatly in battling this disease. We all know of the rapid CV test by abbot, this is the one the president was showing off the machine for. This test looks for actual material of the virus. But...there is another test that is extremely useful. It can...

    based on this quote alone, that is rationale for people quarantining with CV. The difference with HIV is the exposure risk is negligible except though sexual interactions or in a medical or similar setting. But the principle is exactly the same. What about tuberculosis then? Is it because it...
