Our doctors,  facilities,  and preventive measures are 100 years better! Don't spend too much time listening to the media and politicians, they overreact.  I'll make a bold prediction.  The darkest days are upon us. By May 1, there will be a light at the end of the tunnel. World mostly normal by June 1. Of course,  like all gamblers, I've been wrong before.

    To have this resolved within such a short timeline is really a pipedream...keep in mind during the Spanish flu there was not 1000s of daily international flights, and that might have been the worlds saving grace.

    I dont think anyone truly knows what is going to happen in 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, etc...we really are at the mercy of finding a vaccine, and better treatments for the severely infected.

    Without strict measures to lockdown the entire planet simultaneously and forbid travel outside an immediate 2-3 km radius for bare essentials for atleast 30-60 days, theres zero chance this will get better on its own over time.

    People are being asked to stay home for fuks sake...no one is forcing 18 year old kids to pick up a machine gun and fly half way across the world for a 3 year mission in a jungle. This is humanity's opportunity to hit the reset button on moral values and become better people...family 1st, health 2nd...without both it doesnt matter how many zero's your bank account has.

    There is a reason why so many past Bilderberg Group attendees have gone underground in airtight bunkers and wont be resurfacing until 2022 the earliesr...they know how fukked up the world is going to get, and the only thing that matters to the 0.001% of the 1% elites is to make it thru alive during this pandemic when a proven vaccine & potential cure is discovered.

    I am a humble everyday guy like most of you guys reading this...i consider myself educated and yes, quite opinioniated and at times extremely stubborn...but i know how science works, i also know how the media works, along with propaganda...and like most of us here, we have never experienced a world war and cannot imagine the impact one can have on everyday life...well our war has arrived, and to survive it, you better be aware of as much as possible...educated yourself as much as possible...exercise as much as possible, keep your mind sharp as much as possible.

    I havent left my home since March 13, and im prepared mentally and physcially to stay the course for as long as necessary. My wife and kids are fully commited too.

    Stay the fuk home...and yes, the guy in the video is going to be me in 40 years...if i live that long God willing peace

    Yeah, still early to say how NFL will be effected, if at all.   Now, fans coming back out to the games in close quarters with lots of other people ?  That will be interesting to see how quickly people respond.

    NFL or college football will not start on time without fans...its a double standard...If there is still the lock down or social distance measure in place when season starts..how can teams practice and get together with with 150+ people in a confined area when average Americans are required to social distance.....Every team that practices or plays games has....players/coaches/trainers/equipment manager etc...all in a confined area...  They will not allow this to happen when the general public is banned from social distancing and yet professional or college teams can practice or play games... It will have to be all clear for everyone or no games played.....

     I Could see NFL start on time, but it would require constant player/personnel monitoring.  Each morning and evening, thermal scans of everyone b4 any activities, active testing every day (assuming we get a credible lab test that gives results in hours not days).  No fans for the whole season, but I think all of us here would not care.  Something to distract the populace would help a shit ton.

    And agree with PB - this is a 4-6 month ride  minimum if we can get everyone to just bunker down.  My wife and son are severe asthmatics, so I am working remote (assuming I stay employed which is not likely), and I try to not go out unless critical (Rx refills and medicine).   Here's my M.O. for having to go out in public starting last week:

    Grocery runs will be necessary, but you just have to watch out for yourself.  Others do not heed the distancing philosophy, so you do it all your self.  Park way the fuck away from the store, leave your whole wallet except credit card and license, and leave your phone too.  Bring your own wipe for your cart, grab a cart that has been out in the sun (if can go during day), avoid aisles with people in them, and just come back to that aisle 45 seconds later.  Get your shit and get out. 

    Once I get to car, load groceries and return cart.  I have a bottle of warm water and soap ready, wash my hands thoroughly, rinse.  Once loaded, I have a bottle of saline nasal rinse which I flush my nasal passages, and an antiseptic mouth wash to gargle.  Not sure if these two steps do much, but they sure as hell don't hurt, and if they get rid of even a few of these little fuckers and keeps me from catching it, I will do it fro my family.  I hear a lot of people say these things have not yet been "proven" effective against C19, but no one has proven the opposite either.  And I do get a lot of weird looks, but I don't care.  My family is at high risk, so I will do everything in my power to reduce that risk.

    Once home, I drop all clothes I wore in garage, Only bring in the groceries that need immediate refrigeration and I put those in my garage fridge/freezer for 72 hours.  Leave everythign else in car.  I live in CT, so this time of year not a problem.  Again, not sure if these do much, but most viruses can not survive days without the host, so without having better info to go on, I am assuming 72 hours is long enough.  I then hand wash again (pre-plan all this shit b4 you go), take immediately shower, and just leave clothes in garage for a few days.

    Park car in direct sun, as typically viruses do not thrive in heat.  I also sleep away from wife for the first two nights, just in case.  After 72 hours, I bring things in, wash clothes, and cross my fingers.  If you need to use something immediately, wipe it down with sanitizing wipe.

    I sound like a total fucking OCD'er, but you gotta look out for your self and your family.  Better than living in a bunker for 6 months...

    Stay safe Degenerates!  We will gamble again! peace_5

    All the off season camps and mini camps and camps won't be happening.  Training camp doesn't start till late July. Say they can start camp by August 1 then only 2 preseason games and regular start date for season....hopeful thinking we can say.

    Do you sanitize everything you buy?  How does it get on shelf’s? How many people you think touch it?  I wish you best of luck and hope you and family avoid it but what you wrote in nonsensical.

    Ben - much respect to you man.  No, not my point to disinfect everything, rather it was to disinfect only the time critical items, and everything else "quarantine" it for 72 hours before bringing into your house.   Everything has been touched by someone at some point, but higher probability that someone in store coughed/sneezed on something you then buy in the next hour or two, and then you bring inside, your child/family member grabs it, puts it down, then touches their face. 

    I personally believe this virus appears to persist on surfaces longer than anything we are used to, so until data comes out to the contrary, I am just assuming a 72 hour isolation of shit I buy, where practical.  No problem if you deem that non-nonsensical, but I am just being cautious.

    The only item that doesn't make sense to not bring in house, is your own self, so I just outlined the rigorous decon protocol I go through to lower risk exposure to my family and myself.  

    Best wishes to you and all Covers brethren.  Stay safe.

    I think people miss the obvious. The virus isn't going away. So, if you sanitize everything today and do not get sick then you will in a couple of months.

    There just trying to manage the number of deaths at one time and not the total number.

    Even more to that  point the virus was detected that it can  last on plastic for only 72 hrs in a perfect  "lab" setting and starting with a high level dose ..  Health  officials state that no person being able to deliver  that level of virus would not even be able to even work   they would be in a hospital  at  that point.. Even at a  high dose  of deliverance and perfect setting that the readings on plastic is 0.001.. well below  what will infect you..  Almost zero chance of contracting  it from plastics..  Add in shelf time product may have gone untouched on a shelf makes it  almost impossible for  virus  to transfer.

    Call me stupid but I'm an optimist; the initial reaction to this virus may have been too slow

    but I believe we're getting the upper hand. Deaths and new infections are slowing; the larger

    problem will be the isolated or late-breaking clusters of Covid-19. If social distancing tactics

    are religiously followed the medical emergency will pass, although that will likely take months.

    However I'd bet that the NFL will be able to play a full season, perhaps with drastically reduced

    attendance.

    Without a vaccine, COVID-19 cases will begin to escalate this coming fall and winter (AKA "the flu season").  The more people who have ceased sheltering in place, the greater will be the infection rate and death toll.
