All Purpose Coronavirus Discussion Part XVII: The Read A Book Edition

[Beef Invictus]

Not unusual, it's a problem with cancer all the time, hot spot and everyone in the area looks for something to blame.
Sometimes it's just luck.
That's why you need good statistics and statistical analysis.

Think of flipping a coin, it's 50/50, yet if you flip a coin 330 million times, you'll have streaks of 20 heads or 20 tails.

Or if you're me, you go 1 and 14 at a weekly coin toss for a free pizza at PK's in Blacksburg with 13 losses in a row

And so it begins......"Ottawa's Minto Skating Centre has been closed due until further notice at the request of authorities due to Covid. Among those who skated on Thursday was Flyers Captain Claude Giroux."

[TB87]

Ah yes. Of course. I’m sure President Trump made him flip flop during the aids epidemic it sars right?

 

[TB87]

I don't see much flip flopping, Fauci has continually spoke his mind, he's not as circumspect as Birx b/c he doesn't give a hoot.
He's been very consistent about having to be careful in opening up the economy, and the prospect of a second wave.

He's 79, with a long history of accomplishment, if he were "fired" (he's Civil Service, so he'd wouldn't be fired, just put in a corner office) he could easily find an endowed Chair at any top Medical School and/or Public Policy School.

I don’t either, just responding to Defect’s claim that he has been flip-flopping.

Would Lower Sackville be near Blue Ball? Asking for a friend.

Well, asking for me, actually. I don't have any friends.

 

[DancingPanther]

I thought it was McCartney

 

[Starat327]

Ooof. Imagine thinking that entertainers should put their lives at risk for your entertainment.

We had freeze warnings earlier in the week. Yesterday it was 82. Today it was 88. Back in the 60s for the weekend. The weather is f***ed up everywhere

 

[DancingPanther]

Who the hell is this nanobrain

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

That, and also the fact that as a society we lack the discipline needed to stop being selfish and actually abide by guidelines and be responsible.

I would like this 100 times if I could

 

[Lord Defect]

Uh, that's Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov.

Just enjoy a pun for half a second

 

[TB87]

[Starat327]

Not sure. A guy I follow responded which is why I saw it.

 

[Embiid]

A clown choice? I never said she would have been a good president. I said I thought she would have had the best chance to beat Trump. She appears as a moderate but has hard left policies. She would have gotten a decent amount of independent votes, uninformed republican votes, hard left, moderate left, and centerist votes. With proper funding and campaign staff that is.
She’s easy on the eyes, and wether you(royal you not you you) like it or not, the more attractive of the competing candidates has garnered more support since debates have been televised.

I can wait till late fall for hockey provided it is safe. I am on the fence with the resumption this summer.

As a fan I have no say in the matter regardless so I’m not going to sit there & say they should do this or that. I’m ultimately sitting here waiting for them to tell me what the final decision is. It’s on the powers that be & the players to make a decision. But there ultimately is incentives for both to play again though. It’s not just a one sided affair.
