Can you please provide a link to what you read. I see "Citation needed" all the time here. I always thought it was strange that there was a request for a now defunct '80s Chevy with rear brakes that locked up and a radio that was tilted on it's left side. Yes... I have trades to settle, but, yes. I’ll find it, be patient. urgggggghhh Fair. I’d ask the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d ask the same. I know you are numbers/statistics guy. Right now we are dealing with so many things that when I read something, I look at the source site, the origin of the source material and if I see it being referenced on other non-affiliated sites. I tend to be more skeptical at first but I do try to read as much as i can to try to understand what is being discussed. I also read what you post thoroughly because of your detailed responses.

There’s no such thing as error proof replication with viruses. It will definitely mutate. (They’ve already identified what appears to be two separate strains.) But that doesn’t mean that the variants will be any worse or unaffected by previously engineered vaccines. I think it’s a little too soon to be declaring this as a one and done. We probably won’t have a decent idea until we see how things play out next Fall. Hopefully the vaccine will be in place by then. And DCI can plan for a 2021 season. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And DCI can plan for a 2021 season. Saw the separate strains info too. REALLY wish I hadn’t given away my copy of The Great Influenza by John Barry. IIRC people thought that was once and done too but then the new strain/mutation(?) kicked in and that was the bad one. IMO hold on, try to stay calm but don’t be surprised by anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg_orangecounty Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Although we didn't have a global pandemic to deal with we basically learned our show in 5 weeks and won C.Y.O. (sorry 2-7 😜), the U.S. Open, and then D.C.I. It can be done. Try and think a little positive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
