It’s like the guy who comes out of a sensitivity workshop, immediately does what he was told not to do, and laughs. When called on his shit he says, “It was a joke. I’m not being racist, I’m being ironic.” Hopefully, that guy has a come-to-Jesus meeting with HR. Gobert was making the same kind of joke. The mentality that it might be harmful when others do it, but it’s humorously ironic when I do it.Indy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 9:32 amOh, I agree it was stupid either way.

Jazz star Donovan Mitchell has tested positive for the coronavirus, league sources tell ESPN. Jazz players privately say that Rudy Gobert had been careless in the locker room touching other players and their belongings. Now a Jazz teammate has tested positive.
Wow! The whole careless with teammates thing is a huge deal as well. What an idiot.Superbone wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 9:44 amGobert was careless with his teammates as well:

Depends on if the medical system collapses. A South Korea or China ex-Wuhan scenario's about a 0.3 to 1% mortality rate -- the medical system has to hold for that to materialize. A Wuhan or Milan scenario's about a 5% mortality rate -- the medical system will have been overwhelmed and otherwise treatable cases will lead to death. I suspect that it will vary widely across various regions of the US. Worried.Indy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 8:26 amEstimates are up to 150 million infected in the US alone.

Our vet said she got the question a lot. It is a no. Although dogs/cats can be carriers, it doesn't harm them.Superbone wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 9:39 amAnybody know if this can affect the family pet?

As of yesterday's totals CDC has over 1200 confirmed cases and 36 deaths. But for some reason they are excluding numbers from people that didn't seem to contract the virus while in the US, even if they were tested while in the US.O_Gardino wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 1:05 pmIm reading that there are about a dozen dead so far.virtual9mm wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2020 10:09 amDepends on if the medical system collapses.
