Already having MLB games cancelled because of Coroanvirus
The odds of this season keep going down for me. They haven't even played a full series yet, and they are already having to cancel games. I don't see the MLB or the NFL season playing to completion. The NBA season may have a chance, because they are going to be rapidly eliminating teams from competition. It's too hard to maintain a strict bubble over the course of an entire season though, and once you have an infected player, you suddenly have multiple infected players and a game is cancelled. I just don't see how it's going to be done.

Re: Already having MLB games cancelled because of Coroanvirus
The only sure way would be to have the president tweet that he hopes it will be cancelled.
They’d be piling the bodies up in the freezer saying the show must go on! |

Re: Already having MLB games cancelled because of Coroanvirus
The President and Republican Governors have said the show must go on since the first cases arrived on our shores. Bodies have been piling up in freezers. 1000+ deaths in the US the last few days. 150K deaths and counting overall. And the President and Republican politicians response? The show must go on. Schools must open. Expect more of the same. And you compare it to a sprained ankle? Lord have mercy.

In the United States 1,773 people die from heart disease 1,643 people die each day from cancer 465 die each say from just accidents 123 people commit suicide each day... Your incessant drama and panic, use of 'bodies stacking up', and politicization do absolutely nothing but further this number. You have been consumed by it from the start and it isn't mentally healthy. Every time you post, Rugby has to chase a fu3king antacid with a scotch. |

Re: Already having MLB games cancelled because of Coroanvirus
I just read where an NFL "insider" shared that "at least one" and probably several more Marlins players ignored the protocols and "went out" while in Atlanta to play the Braves. This is the best thing that could have happened for the NFL. It pounds home the point that the players cannot ignore the protocols and will get caught and punished. It is even a positive for MLB since it is so early in the season that it should help their protocol adherence, as well, from this point on.

Unfortunately for the Republicans it's not just the poor people getting sick and dying. They are losing members of their party as well in the senate. I'm not a Democrat though. I was raised to be a Democrat and voted the straight Democratic ticket but I left their recent agendas and became an independent. Why let the death numbers rise if we can stop them? This is going to affect the survivors fairly soon from the lung and heart problems associated with the Corona virus. We will have hospitals struggling to meet their demand. Oh, the cost is likely going to have an effect on the economy again. Live and let live Edit: I might be wrong but I believe that they are trying to prevent heart disease, and cancer as well. Sometimes there's not much that we can do about accidents except research and preventative education. |

The CFR hovers between 1 to 8%. https://www.cebm.net/covid-19/global...atality-rates/ Imagine 350 million cases in the USA. I dunno, seems like simple math to me. Many many dead. Thing is if most people got on board the prevention train we could end this crap. Most folks are doing their part while others don’t care and will continue to propagate the virus by disregarding protocols and spreading propaganda against protection. Unfortunately for them they will suffer the consequence and become vectors of the disease to continue spreading to more vulnerable folks. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
