California TCS Sparkler cancelled?

What's on your mind?

It would be great news if it turns out to be valid. Remember the source of the data: WHO. Which does not have such a great track record when it comes to Covid 19. Also, the study is based on contact tracing- the only country with a fully ramped up contact tracing program is China-also adding another question. The WHO website also has contradictory posts on this subject as well as others(ie masks).

Again, I hope it turns out to be true since it is much easier to screen for and certainly would allow for the reopening process to proceed faster

That NOW protesting against stystemic racism is more important than social distancing. You cant make this shit up. The bias is unbelievable. Many people are being brainwashed (very sucessfully) by the fake news and "expert" government health officials. At some point we have to realize we have been played the fool.



Ironically, a local sports radio station in my area said that these protests may actually prove to be an unintended laboratory test on our ability to hold larger outdoor gatherings(ie sporting events) The next few weeks will give us a much better idea what the threat is. Hopefully the news will be good.

BTW- I heard a lot of Mayors & Governors seemingly contradict themselves this past week or at least brush past the issue-- every Govt Health official I heard said that these protests/gatherings were a bad and dangerous thing. Hopefully it does not cause a spike(many involved were members of vulnerable populations) or even worse cause an outbreak among the cops and/or National Guardsmen

It's been 2 weeks since Memorial Day and the large gatherings of family-people outdoors. Todays paper posted some interesting facts of a spike in cases here in CA . They are saying its a 10-14 day incubation period. Lets see what happens next week after all the people who have been out during the unrest and opening of many places.

There is a spike and there is going to be a spike. Just how big is the question. Will it be big enough to close back down? Should we wait to see how big it is until we open completely up? (play softball) It is going to be very interesting to watch what happens this week.

Right on cue - it now looks like WHO is backtracking on yesterday’s report on asymptomatic transmission. They wonder why we are withholding their funding?

Just saw that...how pathetic are they....I mean truly. This isn't political and I don't say this to be pro/against Trump, but it seems he made a good decision to cut ties with WHO last week. What a shitshow this whole thing has been.

Was jut speaking to a co-worker who has a daughter who plays. Her first tournament(limited) is June 20th here in Connecticut(North of Harford) 2 games per day per team Only one parent- coaches wear masks. We have been accelerating opening back up. The majority of Connecticut was a hot spot(especially Fairfield County) Here is a link to the facility and the rules and guidelines

I'd like to thank the Democratic (Socialist) Party for confirming what a lot of people have known all along....this whole pandemic thing was political. If protesting against virtual martial law was bad.....ALL protesting should be bad.....but apparently it isn't. As long as you are protesting against the ghost of systemic racism, it's A-OK. No danger if your cause is righteous. What a joke.

Its a bad joke, too. Most of us will go on with our lives (that matter too) without too much consequence. We may be annoyed or disturbed but not dramatically affected by this whole thing. (Pandemic and civil unrest) On the contrary, this orchestred mess will have a long lasting detriment to those the Democratic (Socialist) Party think they are trying to lift up. Their day to day lives just got worse. Or did they (Dems) maybe not even care about those peoples lives and just want votes and power? I think I know the answer.

The leftist scumbags that run the dimocrat party do not now and will never care about anything but staying in power. To stay in power they will ruin the economy, ruin our kids school years, ruin sports and fan the flames that burn down cities..... then blame all of it on a president who they have investigated, accused, lied about, impeached... non stop since before he was even inaugurated.
Vote dem out! Lets get back to playing ball instead of listening to dims move the goal posts and watching their ninja costumed Brown Shirts, antifa, throw temper tantrums like the limp wristed retards they are.
