In other news there’s now been a positive at my wife’s facility, who she worked with on Saturday. Getting her tested this afternoon. I kind of hope we have it, I really don’t want to do this time in the barrel wondering if I have it again.

NBA just voted to start crowd less games in Orlando on July 31.
More entertaining:

I have never been to Orlando, but I imagine that in addition to amusement parks, it has both drinking establishments and hotels where one could engage in sexual activity with individuals who are not permitted in the bubble.

Orlando has to be one of the worst cities of that size anywhere in the world. Did they say what they were going to do when multiple people had Covid after a week?
I think it used to be the Fitzgerald. Which was only a slightly shittier version of the D.

ETA: authors of the paper that was in The Lancet
Ya that video is nuts.
We have 400 total cases here in our whole province and they are still saying casinos are 6 weeks or more away from opening.
Also the D sucks. No poker and bad restaurants.
Not sure if already shared, good story about how Iceland basically did everything right: massive testing, aggressive contact tracing, etc.
How Iceland Beat the Coronavirus
Iceland never imposed a lockdown. Only a few types of businesses—night clubs and hair salons, for example—were ever ordered closed. Hardly anyone in Reykjavík wears a mask. And yet, by mid-May, when I went to talk to Pálmason, the tracing team had almost no one left to track. During the previous week, in all of Iceland, only two new coronavirus cases had been confirmed. The country hadn’t just managed to flatten the curve; it had, it seemed, virtually eliminated it.
TLDR; Let the public health professionals run things and keep the politicians out of it.

You are missing todays data in that which also happens to be an all time high lol.
if you read it this is a bit of a nothing story. Basically some of the underlying data may have been faulty so they are scrapping the whole thing. Every other study on hydroxy has also shown no or negative overall effect.

Have you been to Mississippi?
Though you’d have to be a moron to keep using it.

Well, it’s not trademark use and would be permissible even if it weren’t satire or political. Sounds like some asshole lawyer sent it to an idiot who temporarily took it down.
In reality, a strong case could be made that selling unauthorized red MAGA hats would also be legal, much less printing a cartoon.

Perhaps the goal isn’t so much to outrun the bear as to outrun those who will help to inform the medical community regarding more effective treatments.

Pretty sure bars, restaurants, gyms, and most retail is closed, to say nothing of courts. Beaches are active movement only. Do you have a cite?
