He claims to be related to the Torrettas. Unless I'm mistaking him for another Bernie.

I believe they acted too quickly and are trying to justify their decision. It's been widely reported that many players in the ACC and SEC had covid, but they're trying to tell us that either those conferences are ignoring or not checking for myocarditis, or the Big 10 players have gotten...

This is about as credible as "unnamed sources close to the situation." If they're ever called on it, they can hide behind HIPAA for not having to validate their claims.. For the record, I'm not attacking you, but the sources that are making these claims are not doing so in good faith.

But they ssid nothing about whether those players have the myocarditis as a result of Covid or whether they have even had Covid. This seems more like a CYA cover story to justify a bad decision.

I'm sorry, bit where has it ever been said that the conference had 10 players who contracted Covid and had subsequent myocarditis?? I had your back when posters started in on you on the OSU thread, but I'm afraid you're out on a limb with this one.

Currently hospitalized covid patients have dropped by over 1000 in the last week to 5691 as I write this.

The NCAA's opinion is worth as much as dental floss at a gators tailgate party.

Kick away! I've got thick skin and love a good ribbing.

I was accepted, but my 3 yr old son got an infected lymph node from it and needed surgery. That took the rest of my savings and I just couldn't see starting a 3 year journey without a penny to my name. It would've been possible, but I'd already struggled through 2 years after getting laid off so...

Oddly enough, it was Cat Scratch Fever that kept me from law school at UM.

It's not like sparks are microscopic airborne particles that you might encounter from individuals or commonly touched surfaces. Contact tracing is done to try to limit outbreaks by getting people tested who might have been exposed, it would be close to impossible to prove liability. New...

1. How do you know where you got it? 2. If you got it anywhere else, who's going to help you?

You haven't heard about the flu/plague outbreaks over the course of history? The Asian Flu of 57-58 or the Hong Kong Flu of 68-69? Not even the 1918 Spanish Flu? How about AIDS? https://www.livescience.com/worst-epidemics-and-pandemics-in-history.html

No, it's not the first pandemic. And we've gotten through deadlier ones without ruining everything. This is actually not as bad a s originally feared. None of the dire predictions has come true, yet we're still trying the failed strategies as though they were. Let's work on getting back to normal.

So how long do you think it's going to take? Are you placing all bets on a vaccine?

24 hours later, here's the new number. It makes it kind of difficult to say it's getting worse when there are 195 fewer people in the hospital. That's about a 3% reduction in one day.

Myocarditis is a side effect of other viral infections as well so it's not something peculiar to Covid.

Exactly. Things like that should prompt you to say, Hmm, I should look into that", rather than take it as gospel.

I get that, but not doing independent verification rather than dismissal puts you in a position where your 'trusted" sources can mislead knowing you'll believe it. For instance, if you discounted this person's statement and bought into the concept of record hospitalizations, then you'd have egg...

You're discounting information based on the source. She just so happens to be correct here.
