Re: Early Christmas Present: Boys State Hockey Tournament (Meeting Dec 3rd)

:) It's a good exercise, coach. And we fundamentally disagree on where we land on the cost/benefit side of this. I cannot agree with these lockdowns on a virus with basically a 99% survival rate. I'd be all for opening, boosting our ICU capacity (why didn't we do that in MN, we actually lost hospita...

Re: Early Christmas Present: Boys State Hockey Tournament (Meeting Dec 3rd)

6AAGuy, I understand and can appreciate your position on lockdowns, etc. I've erased one word, and added one word from the last sentence of your last post to possibly illustrate how some others might see it. I acknowledge that you do not see it this way. (I left your words of destroy business and e...

First, thanks to Lee for responding first. Was just coming to post something similar in response to 6AA's post. Also. it hasn't been signed by "over 50,000 doctors".

Here you go, SEC coach. Asymptomatic spread is not impactful: https://twitter.com/kerpen/status/1338583017980391425?s=21 And another article speaking to the fact that no one is reporting on the 10M person study showing ZERO cases of asymptomatic spread: https://www.aier.org/article/asymptomatic-spr...

Re: Early Christmas Present: Boys State Hockey Tournament (Meeting Dec 3rd)

Again, I don't believe we have an accurate estimate on the number of asymptomatic Covid-19 folks. If an accurate number is available for that, it could surely shoot down my theories. Per your study mentioned above, influenza may be 50%. Could the Covid % be much higher? I believe people with sympto...

Re: Early Christmas Present: Boys State Hockey Tournament (Meeting Dec 3rd)

You would have to provide some specific numbers, from the same source, on both Covid and Influenza asymptomatic % for me accept that "A Johns Hopkins study disagrees".

Re: Early Christmas Present: Boys State Hockey Tournament (Meeting Dec 3rd)

Not all virus act the same. Influenza is rarely asymptomatic, whereas it is very common in Covid19. People with flu/Covid symptoms are staying home for the most part, or at least masking and distancing. This has greatly lowered the incidence of influenza spread. Covid on the other hand is very ofte...

A large part of the problem can put aside the idea that kids are suffering during all of this.

Re: covid and MH

Yet 99.9% recovery. Elevated tests, High PCR= more covid cases. Testing since 10/1 has increased by 23% +/-....while confirmed cases are up 38% +/- over that same time frame. More testing doesn't necessarily mean more cases. My postulate was twofold: Elevated tests AND High PCR. High PCR means more...

Re: covid and MH

The Great Doctor Fauci himself has suggested PCR above 35 is basically useless, and going to give false positives. Yet we fail to have a standard that mandates 35 or below. So yes, false positives are going to impact the case numbers. And the decision makers are keenly focused on case numbers (but r...

I don't think the Governor has much more time before he has to do something definitive to stop viral spread, if he's going to. 7,200 positive cases today in MN with a 15% positivity rate. Remember - current decisions are being made based on an average of 1,900+ cases per day. He can have a standard...

I was at BSM/HF game. Felt like real High School Hockey. I'm going tomorrow too. They let in 100 non-pass holding spectators.
