Good idea. As to this thread now, don't waste your time. Woke up this morning to 19 notifications on Twitter from the MAGA crowd. No signs of intelligence to be found, I can promise. LMFAO!! Says the guy who posted this. "Dr. Fauci has been the one person who has not downplayed this, in spite of the administration trying to do so at nearly every press conference in March." Then posts this after being shown what Fauci was actually saying in February with credible sources. "He was wrong in February about the risks being minimal, far too general in the sense or conveying information to the public at large." Going to try and deny this? Nope. I was wrong, admitted it and moved onward. Since the situation has evolved, with the social distancing protocols, the lockdown in various states and so on, he has been factual and just as importantly....logical. Meanwhile, your hero is out lying at every turn, misleading the public and inspiring his cult of followers to take hydroxychloroquine, which has no proven evidence of working in this case. Once again, if it was not clear, I was wrong about Fauci never downplaying the virus to the public. He did so in February and prior to that in January. I'm referring specifically to March and now April.

Don't want to give false hope but here's a little something that hopefully pans out real soon. www.abc27.com/news/us-world/national/doctors-with-pittsburgh-university-announce-potential-coronavirus-vaccine/www.foxnews.com/health/potential-coronavirus-vaccine-candidate-developed-by-university-of-pittsburgh-scientistsabc7news.com/coronavirus-cure-covid-19-treatment-doctor-claims-jacob-glanville/6074011/sfist.com/2020/04/03/san-francisco-doctor-featured-in-netflix-series-says-covid-19-treatment-could-be-ready-by-september/

Man, I could really go for some tacos at Ponce's in Kensington. Would love to wash it down with a cold bottle of San Miguel Cerveza Negra. Good idea. As to this thread now, don't waste your time. Woke up this morning to 19 notifications on Twitter from the MAGA crowd. No signs of intelligence to be found, I can promise. I just went to my local Vons and bought some big cans of black beans, some bell peppers, onion, jalapeño and some cheese. Gonna make me an awesome bean burrito for dinner tonight. Can't wait. Super excited. And as a bonus, my Vons just got in a big shipment of TP. Whooo-hooo. Now I can stop using the kelp I collected from the beach. (It's really uncomfortable when you get a particularly sandy one.)

You, just more douchebaggery. Mod's note - Knock it off. Personal attacks and insults are not allowed under forum rules. Expect an official warning when I get off work.

You could just show some grace, because your side isn't clean, either. I can admit that I was wrong - You can do the same, I hope. I have admitted I was wrong in the past. But show me where I have been wrong about health officials downplaying the Corvid-19 outbreak as late as February. Show me where I am wrong about NY government officials including the Governor of NY and Mayor of NYC downplaying the coronavirus as late as March. I didn't make that up and posted multiple sources showing just that. There's no denying it. Well wait a minute. 🙄

Knock off the personal insults and attacks. Act like mature adults, for crying out loud!
At least one official warning is coming when I get off of work today.

I hope you go back and read all the posts when you decide to warn certain people. And yes, I should have had better restraint. But you know exactly who the button pushers are.

The person you support. The administration you're backing here - That's all. But I'm going to move on as the mods suggest.

So you admitted you were wrong about extremely important information given to the President and the general public from our leading health officials but continue to blame the President? Ok!! 👍

And while you're at it, move this thread to the appropriate forum. This no longer has anything to do with "Aztec Sports and Conference Discussion". If it ever did.

Some people are just not looking at this realistically. Indefinitely (or, worse, permanently) shutting down most service industries would literally live millions homeless and starving.
Yeah, there are many industries that continue to hum - but almost half of the economy has almost completely stopped. That is unsustainable. So is social distancing on a long term basis. Telemedicine doesn't work. Most jobs can't be done from home. The service industry - which probably makes up half of our economy, can't be done under the guidelines suggested by some.
Life is a risk. Getting in your car and driving is a risk. There are no sure bets.
We cannot hide forever. We cannot hide from every serious virus that comes along. We need to learn how to deal with them and live with them. People MUST interact. You want to hide, go ahead. I'm playing it safe for now, as will my family. But come July it's going to be time to get back on track. My job is a lot harder working from home. I feel like I'm in jail. A lot of other people feel the same way. We need to get out and interact as human beings.
Short term - lockdown. Stay home. Don't get close to other people.
Long term - wash your hands more often. Quarantine people who get sick earlier on in the curve and isolate the people who have been in contact with them. React more quickly, have plans in place to reduce the number of people exposed.
But we can't hide from life forever. It will kill the economy and kill our spirit as human beings. Lockdowns like this and shutdowns of entire industries can only work if temporary, short term measures.
Otherwise, as I said previously, the cure will be even worse than the disease.
