2 ISU FB players have Coronavirus

are teams gonna play each other if players are sick? I doubt it. Unless they put teams in strict quarantine the season won’t last longer than a week.

I suspect we’ll have lots of games where several starters are out for two to three weeks while recovering.
 
Yeah, my made up charts from the CDC and WHO. If you can refute those, go ahead.

You’ve also posted multiple false charts you have found on twitter on this site. Not misleading or out of context - flat out false. I suggest you examine your sources and consider why they are trying to trick you and others with false information.

I'm happy to read that. I find it interesting they don't mention anything about social distancing.

Humor me here, if 60,000 people are in Jack Trice Stadium and 100% are wearing a mask for the entire game, is that reasonably safe?
"The model the researchers built is known as the maskim simulator. One of the collaborators on the study, economist Guy-Philippe Goldstein, told Forbes that in addition to social distancing, wearing a mask is the only thing working "to flatten the curve of infections" as the world waits for treatments and vaccines.

I do think that everyone wearing masks would help a lot.
 
That's one chart that I admittedly didn't fact check. Care to comment on my recent charts, or are you just going to **** post all day? Never mind, we know the answer to that.
Does trying to shrug this off because a lot of the 117,000 people that have died so far are older count as **** posting or as long as you actually believe it then it's a good post?
 
I agree. I was just saying it would be so "iowa state" to lose one of our best QBs of all time because of a world wide pandemic.
Oh 100%. We did kind of luck out though on the fact that our basketball team was historically bad in a season where it wouldn't have mattered if we were really good.

Yep. I did chuckle that our esteemed neighbors to the east didn't get their best chance in 2 decades to get to the sweet 16 (do feel bad for all college players tho)

You literally said the virus isn't that bad because the average age of people who die is 81. That's an argument you made.

It's undoubtedly bad if you're older, or you have certain vulnerabilities. Which means that those are the people who we should be taking extreme precautions with (and for). For the rest of us, other than the obvious precautions, I don't think that added .01% risk of dying is something that we need to remake society for.

How do you feel about seat belts. I haven’t been in a car accident in like 20 years. I’m okay to stop wearing one right?

Requiring people to wear a mask in public during outbreaks doesn't seem like a complete remake of society.

Not shrugging it off. Nor will I shrug off the deadlier maladies that went unchecked/unscreened while we were panicking. Heart disease, cancer, vaccinations for all kinds of things. There are vast side effects on the other side of the equation which will kill far more people than COVID19.
