You mean this Rudy Gobert?

I've been seeing more and more predictions that within 2 weeks time, we'll be looking like Italy is today.

It's not about taking steps, tests are not available. I have a friend in Cali who went to the doctor with flu like symptoms yesterday and was told "the coronavirus is all around us. There is no way of telling if you have it or not because we don't have tests. Have a mask"

a NC State Senator provided a briefing yesterday that as of 22 hours ago, in the state of NC, we have on-hand from the CDC laboratory supplies to test approximately 150 people. (no typo, 150.) Additional supplies are en route to NC to allow testing of an additional 500 people.

Reports have shown testing, if you manage to get it, to be very expensive. If you're uninsured, and your state isn't footing the bill, and you can't get to a CDC public health lab...you got a couple grand at the ready to go get this test? Most Americans don't.

If that was found in a doctors office, it was cause some chump wrote it on a whiteboard at home, took it to a doctors office, took a picture of it, then put it in their car and drove home.

I see this thread is still kicking, so I am assuming the XFL has made it past week 3

It is striking to me that for much of the world "washing your hands" seems to be a new concept. I think I am forever done with shaking hands with anyone.

I don't think it's that outlandish considering a number epidemiologists are predicting 40-70% of the world population will catch it within the coming year.

That being said, the majority of those who do catch it will either be asymptomatic or it will be nothing more than a cough and maybe a fever.

I just want to say, I hope we never suit up for a game wearing maroon jerseys and orange pants.
