Us unfortunately hitting 40k in fatalities today has me thinking about the flu death comparisons...so, that 40-60k average for the regular flu? It takes a whole season to get to that, right? (Perhaps 6 months?). The fact that we hit 40k in less than two months...wouldn't that kinda make a case for this already being worse?
-
That's precisely what I mean, lol 2014 was a golden opportunity to build something...but the departures of Cruz and Markakis...and the Davis Contract...and not investing in the international market...it all went down the toilet!
-
Angelos is singlehandedly responsible for the irrelevance of the O's for years (and for the current situation we're only just starting to dig out of...Angelos finally finds some success from 2012-2014, and still managed to find a way to screw it up!). I am thankful that the sons are not taking after the father--and that gives me hope!
-
Just a little historical perspective...
-
Yeah I'm wary of that too given how past weekend seemed better and then...this week happened
-
Someone on fb tried to say this wasn't an actual pandemic based on this...thoughts? (For context, I had said she should be careful before comparing the virus to just your run-of-the-mill seasonal germs and such)
-
Now, I don't know enough about the subject, but...an opinion of this professor (apparently a mathematician?) is that it was basically for nothing and that the virus follows a fixed pattern regardless of shutdowns...thoughts? https://townhall.com/columnists/marinamedvin/2020/04/15/israeli-professor-shows-virus-follows-fixed-pattern-n2566915

Wait, how....? How ya managed to sour that up I have no idea...but I'll give ya points for creativity, lol
-
Yeah raw fatality number comparisons are already looking weaker...if we are less than two months into this and already have over 37k...and someone said the average flu season brings 40-60k? This might already be worse in that statistical category, smh I mean...has the flu ever killed that many in under two months?
-
Well, we don't have the immunity, but we are certainly looking like a herd of something...
-
Thought it was mutton chops? (although pork chops sounds funnier, lol)
-
Looks like that was aftert a pretty awesome ice event! Lolol
-
I'd imagine colleges are gonna let the requirements for those tests go (some colleges may have already decided to do that)
-
I'm still wondering why they're still baby stepping it like this at this point. I mean...what would you hypothetically do after May 15th? Lol
-
So you're saying that the population size doesn't make their method as easily applicable here? (was asking about this earlier since I've been seeing some citing them as an argument for us not needing to have shutdown)
-
Okay folks...so someone posted this and I wanted to know your thoughts (aside from the conspiracy "tyrannical government" claims) And forgive me if the Sweden comparison has already been discussed here. I've always wondered what happens if we and half the world got it wrong and did all this for nothing? Not saying that's the case, but...is that still a possibility?
-
I can imagine that nobody wants to say "close for the rest of the year", but...if ya gotta extend it until at least May 15th...is there really any point in trying to bring them back in after that?
-
Oh dang it! Now if I had read it like at the beginning I woulda made a better assumption
-
Same, hahaha Ya know @supernovasky I think it's something about your screename...(I guess it's the -vasky suffix? Lol)
-
And as a church musician I feel this...missing my choir, certainly missed playing this past Sunday. (But thank God for livestreamed services/masses...at least we have that!)
-
Yeah I was thinking about that...numbers do seem lower over the weekends.
-
Yeah today has been particularly horrid in that department...(is that our highest daily total?) Was looking a little better Sunday and Monday...but alas

And I hope it does end fast (or better yet not happen at all! ) Sorry, MA bias...lol -
Meanwhile the vegans are quietly laughing with glee...lol

The Lord is risen indeed--Alleluia, Alleluia! A blessed Resurrection Sunday to you as well!
