What were the odds that it would match the Orioles' winning percentage?

So rich MLB employees who have been privileged enough to shelter at home don't have the virus?

Other than the players, most MLB employees are far from rich.

Privileged enough to have been sheltering at home though. I just don't see how some MLB antigen test tells us shit.

I'm seeing a lot of "friends" on social media who were all for the quarantine now being sick of it so just like that they are changing their tune and bitching about not reopening. I don't want anyone to get sick but some people need something drastic to help them understand

Pence not self quarantining and will be at White House on Monday. Apparently the staff testing positive is undermining Trump's appearance of everything is fine to open. I swear

read 'em and weep, boys

from the finest periodical known to man

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... -says.html
Professor Hamilton, a long-time critic of Beijing, said two Chinese scientists had written a highly regarded paper saying the coronavirus came from a leak from the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

'There's a very plausible hypothesis here that someone became infected in the laboratory, walked out and started infecting other people in Wuhan,' he said.

The short paper from February 6 was written by scientists Botao Xiao and Lei Xiao, both from Wuhan universities, and was called 'The possible origins of the 2019-nCoV coronavirus'.

The paper noted the bats that carry the suspected virus live in habitat 900km from the seafood market, the bats are not eaten by Wuhan residents, and that 'no bat was traded in the market'.


Many scientific and medical professionals are also becoming sceptical of the first Wuhan wet market explanation.

UK-based medical teacher Dr John Campbell, who provides daily evidence-based updates on the coronavirus pandemic on YouTube, said there doesn't seem to have been an intermediary species between bats and humans after all.

'People thought it was pangolins at first but that doesn't seem to be bearing out,' he said on May 1.

Dr Campbell noted it was a large coincidence that the pandemic originated so close to the Wuhan Virology Institute and said scientists may have been conducting animal research on the coronavirus and one of the lab workers may have sold some animals to the nearby Wuhan wet market.

US-based pathologist Chris Martenson said a suspicious sequence of nucleotides in the RNA coding of the Sars-Cov-2 coronavirus appear to have been inserted as they do not occur in any of the close or even distantly related viruses.

Even more suspicious, the nucleotide sequence appears right at a point in the RNA sequence called a furin cleavage site, a place where the enzyme furin can precisely cut proteins, he said.

'None of the closest (viral) or even distant relatives have this site,' he said in a YouTube analysis.

'Those that do only have 40 percent of the same genome.'

Dr Martenson explained on his Peak Prosperity YouTube channel that the insert is not likely to be the result of a natural mutation as mutations usually change by one random nucleotide at a time, not the sudden appearance of a whole new sequence.

a significant 'second wave' seems like a certainty

We're all going to get sick eventually. We failed.

I bet if we just hunker down a few more weeks the virus won't just be there waiting for us once we peek out. We failed.

You say that like this outbreak is past tense.

it would make me feel safer knowing that it was a lab mistake because i was under the impression than man had tamed nature and i don't like that assumption to feel challenged

Choose your own adventure:
Other nations have achieved what you have not, and by making the opposite decisions. Do you....

A. Double down

B. First explain that having taken the wrong path previously, only more of the wrong path can save you now, then double down

C. Fixated awkwardly on China on a message board, never quite giving enough specifics about what you believe to risk being locked down to a specific theory

We made our choice. It was the wrong one. It fucked us. I wasn't aware there was the option of a do over.
