I was looking forward to the spectacle of tomorrow night's empty GSW game.

ETA: my mistake, you are correct. It would have been tomorrow night.

I think NCAA stuff is still on, with empty arenas.

Y eah, that'll be eerie. I have a friend that goes to the local conference tourney every year. This will be his first miss in a decade.

Yep, they just announced that decision today I think, but it already feels like it’s behind the curve.

Not NFL or MLB?

MLB could be, they are playing spring training games right now, but they could easily close those to the public. And even delaying the start of the season wouldn’t be a huge problem for them, though unlike the NHL and NBA which can easily play in the summer if needed, it becomes difficult to play baseball in the winter, so assuming things get back to “normal” they’d probably have to play a shortened season.

This is all so deeply, incredibly, stupid.

I worry we’re 5-6 days from thinking it was an under reaction. That’s how far behind Italy we are on the exponential curve.

Local major junior teams have already barred fans from attending (but are still playing, weird), I suspect it might shut down, too, or the games moved to BC, where reaction has been far less. I wonder about that one too, given the international nature of Vancouver - I suspect it’s there bigtime but for some reason hasn’t caught attention yet.

By “stupid”, I mean our collective panicked reaction to it. We were given a dress rehearsal for this in 2017-18 when a series of mistakes and miscalculation were made during flu season. We obviously learned nothing from it.
Also, I hope you’re feeling better.

I should be fine just in time to be quarantined again.

A lot of the tests are proving to be faulty. Wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of people diagnosed with the “regular” flu actually have corona.
