It's quite popular among a certain % of current Americans to deny facts and science. Remember when it was a thing to laugh at people that thought the world was only 4000 years old, thought the moon landing was fake, vaccines weren't needed? Those deep thinkers are now driving the bus. Link to post Share on other sites

Theoretically, could screw up the math, but for the love of god you’d think the NCAA could make an exception here. Link to post Share on other sites

bills10 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I’m middle of the road in most things in life. I have had to talk my patients off the ledge for most of the past several days, and try to make sure my 3 year olds wash their hands properly. What I don’t understand is closing schools/day cares. We need medical professionals like myself and many on this board to be able to go to work to care for our patients, yet kids that practically cannot get the disease are being forced home. If someone was already there to take care of them, daycare wouldn’t be needed! In real life, basketball games are not too important and if they are delayed or cancelled it stinks but life moves on. These other decisions really can screw up people’s lives. I hope this all turns out ok for all of you... Link to post Share on other sites
