  1. NCAA Tournament & COVID-19

    I don't prescribe i'm not a doctor. But i've read what the prescription doses are for Lupus and RA and what the dosage for the COVID19 patients are.
  2. NCAA Tournament & COVID-19

    There are only a couple of issues with this. First, there is no data that supports taking it early helps so this is just an argument that has no validity behind it right now(the French trial all patients started within 48 hours of arriving at the hospitals). Second, the doses being administered...

    FWIW, this is a pretty cool graphic to watch showing the daily growth in deaths of Coronovirus and how it stacks up to The Top 15 causes of death in the US. It became the top daily cause of death on April 7th https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/1727839/ In terms of the death...

    Read the whole thing, disagree with most of it. Well written and thought out. For me personally it reads like alot of utopian gooblegook.

    Talking about age and why so many are still prepared to wait this out. Here are the COVID19 death rates by age range based on 2 recent studies. 80+ - 14.8% 70-79 - 8% 60-69 - 3.6% 50-59 - 1.3% 40-49 - 0.4% 30-39 - 0.2% 20-29 - 0.2% < 20 - 0.1% Also, as an FYI, here is data from NYC of the ages...

    FWIW, this is a really good article on actions that 4 countries that have done a good job of controlling the outbreaks in their country and what they did. The bad news is we are basically too late on most of this, the one we can still do is to test the crap out of this once we do get to a point...

    The last time I saw that number (which was about a week ago) GA had the 4th lowest testing rate per capita in the country ahead of only KS, VA, TX. Per Capita testing in GA is 1/4 that of testing in NY, LA, and RI the 3 states with the highest per capita testing. Your numbers will not look like...

  12. NCAA Tournament & COVID-19

    I did read an article a few days ago about this. From an AA standpoint (this is not GT specific), they are losing revenue due to lower ticket sales, lower donations, and they expect they will lose revenue even with games as they expect fewer people to attend games if they have them and spend...
  13. NCAA Tournament & COVID-19

    I'm really happy that your friend was saved, that's great news. It may or may not have been due to HCQ. This is why we have to test every drug and not assume based on anecdotal evidence. It can be due to a placebo effect. It could be a patient would have improved even if they had not been given...

    Coronavirus is a crazy contagious virus. I saw a new study last week that suggested an R0 of 5.7. I can't imagine it is truly that high, but even something in the mid to high twos is going to be really difficult to control once it is spreading. We still are basically blind in this country...
  15. The ACC will delay the start of competition for all fall sports until at least Sept. 1

    This is focused more on pro sports, but is an interesting read to understand all the legal issues that are going to have to be dealt with before sports can resume. https://www.si.com/nba/2020/04/15/donald-trump-adam-silver-mark-cuban-economy-advisory-coronavirus
  16. NCAA Tournament & COVID-19

    Went and read the 20 page document tonight. Only 20% of the HCQ patients also got zithromax. The study is pretty clear. They found no statistical difference in outcomes for those that took HCQ vs those that did not. With or without the zithromax, it didn't make a difference and not all the...

    What's most disappointing about this is not the number of new positive cases, its that compared to last week testing is down 30% and the number of cases is still increasing. simply put, we don't really have this under control on a national level yet. We still have no plan on a Federal level to...
  19. The ACC will delay the start of competition for all fall sports until at least Sept. 1

    And while he didn't come right out and say it, the NYC mayor today implied he does not expect sports in NYC until 2021. Boger, I hope you continue to feel better. Our neighbor is a 25 yr old nurse and she spent 3 days in a hospital and then 14 days at home with COVID19. We think our sone in...
  20. Merits of G-League vs. College Basketball

    FWIW, i think this is a pretty brilliant move on the G-League's part right now. The top players for the most part don't care that much about playing in college, it is a one year way station on the way to the NBA. Given all the uncertainty right now, there can be little degree of confidence that...
