    i know this is in French, but translated what it says is that a Hydroxychloroquine study in France has been halted due to cardiac side effects.

    That is still nothing more than an opinion from one person. I'll take the word of medical personal who have actually studied the virus over a former Army Colonel who has not. once again, when you have something a little more factual than the opinion of one person who has not actually studied...

    As mentioned by another poster the French study has been disavowed by the Scientific Society that originally published the paper. The author has a history of manipulating data and they said the how and why behind the selection of patients did not meet their standards. (my take on that - the...

    FWIW, GA posted 35 more deaths at noon today. So that is 100 combined in their last 2 reports. That is a really large spike over what the were reporting and more toward the upper end of the confidence interval in the Washington Model.

    No countries numbers are going down due to widespread hydroxychloroquine use because no country is using it widely. it is only being used in very small test cases. The original test paper in France has been disavowed by the society that initially published it because the author had a past...

    Was reading a long article with Coroners from across the country. They believe the true number of deaths is being significantly undercounted, especially in states with more limited testing. A number of the coroners mentioned they can't get tests to confirm whether a person died of COVID19...

    that's sort of the place i've come to Chris. I've come to accpetance that we may not have sports in the fall (not just college football, but NFL, PGA etc.)- and that if we do, then that is first a pleasant bonus, and second, means things are going really well against COVID19

    FWIW, my gut is that once sports returns to the US, it will be professional leagues first. They have deeper pockets and players who are being paid, so they are more likely to give it a go first as well as having the financial resources to potentially set something up that would be deemed safe...

    I'll also say that whenever sports do come back in the US, it will be professional sports first, before college. Given that Professional sports have deeper pockets and their players are being paid - they are alot more likely to take a chance on playing before the NCAA and any college...
