So apparently Usain Bolt's unmasked Bday party results in him testing positive for COVID.  Guess even he couldn't out-run it.  Damn, that's a fast moving virus.  Too soon?

So there's been more positive cases at universities in NC. Not sure why they have people live on campus when classes are online

NC has had 2600 deaths since March :sad:

@Ace Nova  Still think the CDC is independent of the Trump administration?  You sure about that?

Because classes are in person.  My wife is teaching at a NC university in person this semester.

Masks and assigned seating...

No Cooperation After Party Caused Montco COVID Spread: County

The ripple effect of just a few people refusing to work with contact tracers led to a large group needing to quarantine in Montgomery Co.

Kudos, d-bags! Dip shirts like you are why there will be no football.

I can answer that one

USA = 5.9 million cases. 182 thousand deaths

India = 3.31 million cases. 60 thousand deaths.

Generally speaking, one would think India would far worse than the USA. And yet. . . .

Isn't it funny we have better graphs and spread sheets for fantasy football drafts than the leader of the free world has to address a global pandemic.

 

Donald Trump whipped out the charts to make his case about coronavirus.  They didn't help him get around reporter Jonathan Swan - ABC News

a rudimentary 4-bar bar graph was his "proof". :roll: :roll:    this guy. 

To be fair I'm not entirely going to trust the numbers coming out of any country that has a virtual slave class of citizen. That's not to say that the US's numbers aren't embarrassingly bad but still.

Hey. WTF????

In all seriousness, India does have a couple major advantages. The population is much younger (27 median age vs. 38 in the US) and not nearly as out of shape (based on obesity rates). Obesity is really a major driver here in the US.

Still doesn't mean we haven't failed miserably.
