Coronavirus...In all Seriousness...

they just stated on the local Minneapolis/St Paul news that there are only 3 reported cases of the virus in the state of Minnesota
A week ago the US had 60 virus cases. Today we hit 974.
About a week and a half to go till NCAA.
So..........place your bets..........
Be safe out there.
Usually too hot and humid for people to be outside much at that time of the year so not getting a lot of natural Vit D. Air condidtioning is a WONDERFUL invention.
Just because they had a virus outbreak in the summer months does not negate studies that show Vit D helps the immune system resist infections.
Coincidence is only coincidence. Not proof of concept.
And according to those who are following World case numbers and graphing them the US and several other European countries are about 11 1/2 days behind what Italy is experiencing. So............
Today Italy announced 977 NEW cases to bring their total to 10,149 with 168 New deaths for a running total of 631.
A lot can happen in the next 9 days before NCAA starts.
China and Italy have the highest death rates. South Korea is less than 1% with 7000 cases reported. Demographics matter. Italy has a large retirement population, and both countries have a large number of smokers. Also China doesn't have nursing homes, their elderly are taken care of by their family, possibly more vulnerable.

In the article, they said that they spoke to the CDC who I am guessing is following things closely and they said there was no reason to cancel or modify it. We are closely getting to the point of no return $$$ wise for fans, vendors, participants etc.
When H1N1 hit in 2009-2010, estimated 60 million Americans got it with around 13K deaths. Now, I remember it being a thing but not a big deal like this is being made out to be. It was hardly a blip beyond basic reporting in the media.

Not only is he an expert when it comes to wrestling, he's also a doctor. Impressive!
Reading his comments is surreal.
(because they're not testing...a lot of people with "not the flu" have been into my brother's pharmacy)
Deal. I'll trade the one night with R. Kelly. 70% alcohol solution after soap and water should do the trick. Tournament on.
When you fire the head of the pandemic response team, don’t replace him, and then order no tests as to ensure low numbers, you gain the support of the very very gullible cultists.
that he calls it Wuhan virus is straight up bull and that label was created to blame China in the event it goes bad. The GOP isn’t even denying it.
hey @smalls103 .... you’re a real life Russian bot. Be proud.

Just stop. You are better than this. At least I think you are.
hey dumbass they have 1.5 million test kits in circulation with a Coralville firm that produced them. Doesn’t take much effort to do a little research I guess it’s just easier to be an idiot
Not one part I said in part 1 is false.
Are you denying the shift in labeling was specifically a PR move? You’d be the only one.
Willie literally quotes Russian bot accounts and theories.
yeah I’m okay with my opinion.
That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t help willie change a flat. If he was my neighbor I’d love him like my neighbor. It’s easy for me to disagree with someone’s politics and think nothing of it.
It surely means I’ll shrug my shoulders when he tries to comment about anything that requires critics thinking outside his actual scope of expertise (wrestling reporting).
They aren’t testing everyone who needs testing. No one is denying that at hospitals. Why don’t you do a little research?
as of yesterday at 4 pm, 4300 people have been tested. That’s not nearly as many as we should be testing according to doctors.
You can call me a dumbass all you want. I’ll listen to experts. You listen to what you want.
Have a good night!!
Absolutely, But You do Realize that getting upset over a relabeling of the Virus based off of its place of origin can also only be labeled a PR move....Except in your case it is because you are upset it will be harder to blame Trump. SAME THING, Just Different side of the COIN..lol
P.S. -POLITICS SUCK!!!!
Or don’t stop. Continue with politics where it doesn’t belong and prove me wrong. Mission accomplished. You are not better than that. Continue to spread opinions as facts. Knock yourself out but it’s pretty sad.
they weren’t testing because they didn’t have enough test kits, they don’t need to be overrun by everyone with a sniffle.
you are still a dumbass, keep listening to those “doctors” no one else talking about
I see a lot of medical professionals complaining about the US response, including the National Association of Nurses.
Please for the love of everything holy show a minimal amount of restraint and keep this free of politics. There is a board for that if you must! If you can’t resist....well then you are trash.
There is no real evidence in the medical literature that taking doses of vitamin C or D will help fight infections with the exception that one is vitamin deficient. The article you note is from orthmolecular medicine which is a non traditional medical group that was started by Linus Pauling. Their findings have been refuted in all real medical research studies. In fact large(megadoses) of vitamins ( which are recommended by Orthomolecular medicine) have been found to be unsafe.
Banjo also said he would never post about politics on here again. He's broke that promise twice.

Things can change quickly, but clearly there were not enough tests available in CA, as of a few days ago. This from SJ Mercury News on Mar 7th:
<<
Community doctors say they they don’t have test kits, and have been told to go through government health officials for testing, which can take precious time.
“We have no local testing available,” said Dr. Walter Mills, president of the California Academy of Family Physicians, which represents 11,000 doctors. “No one has been trained to do the test, as it is not available in the community.”>>

The number of new covid-19 infections cases is thought to be growing exponentially, perhaps doubling every 6 days.
Barring sudden containment or a cure coming soon, the extent of those infected could be enormous by May, which would seriously strain the health care facilities.
your brother has a pharmacy in Minnesota?
and doctors in Minnesota have given patients a prescription for "not the flu" and then these patients have gone to your brother pharmacist?
what does your brother prescribe to all of these patients who have "not the flu," which of course, has to be the coronavirus?

Some Iowa (Johnson County!) news March 10th:
<<
DES MOINES, Iowa (KTIV) -- Health officials in Iowa are reporting five additional cases of coronavirus, COVID-19, in eastern Iowa's Johnson County.
According to the Iowa Department of Public Health, the state now has a total of 13 presumptive positive cases.
The IDPH says the new cases are all adults between the ages of 61 to 80 years old and are from Johnson County. They were all on the same Egyptian cruise as the seven previous cases in the county.>>

Banjo takes advantage of every opportunity he has to put his political beliefs into Iowa sports forums that he can. Huffington post is what you’re looking for I believe
Denial ain't just a river in Egypt. -Mark Twain
The pissing matches over who is unbiased and where the cases in Iowa originated seemed to make this a timely appropriate quote. If anyone is friends or relatives with the patients my apologies if an ironic quote from an iconic author is too much given the situation.
HS track meets in Iowa started getting cancelled last night and ISU sent out a letter to prepare students for online learning after spring break. As my colleged age son texted me:
I mean college kids aren’t going to not travel over spring break so it’s inevitable that things get worse and the likelyhood a case getting on each campus and spreading like wildfire is so scary I think they won’t take the chance.
After ISU's first letter yesterday, I heard that they may announce online after spring officially today, so we'll see. (My connections with the Board of Regents are about the same as they are to the inside of the wrestling room, so take it FWIW.)
This was just announced today as well, two days after they said they woudn't cancel.
