Not looking great. N.C. is on track for NY and NJ levels. 
 

NC = 450 cases per 100k people

NY and NJ = 2000 cases per 100k people.

NC could be that high in a month or two.

Gastonia has 312% covid cases increase over the last 2 weeks.

Is that because their numbers were so low? It reminds me of fox sports saying skips show was the fastest growing sports show in America. Well if you go from 0 to 1 it’s super growth. 
 

also, ironic too cause they had a person saying to defy the gov a few weeks ago and open back up right?

Could be...one of SC's "hot spot" counties now has been one of the lowest number of cases in the state thus far, therefore only a handful of new cases made the rate jump significantly.  That county has 95 cases and 0 deaths.

Why are so many people trying to make this a political thing? There are TONS of people here that don't wear a mask and not one of them is GOP.

It's mostly a youth thing.

There are a bunch of people making personal decisions to wear one or not, and then others who are making political statements by wearing one or not.  But I'd say alot of people fall into a category of just going with the environment they are in.  If they live in an area where everybody is wearing masks, then they put one on.  If the don't - they don't.  Where I live most places have a very high compliance rate (probably 70-80% or better) so unless you are personally or politically opposed to wearing a mask you feel kind of awkward being the only one without one on.  Put some of those same people who are wearing masks into a non-mask wearing area and I bet they wouldn't wear one.  Its kind of like PPE on a construction site, people tend to adapt to the environment they are in.

The current Mumps vaccine was 4 years and it started in 1963 with the dad of a girl who had mumps. That’s what’s in the MMR vaccine and Merck started using it in 1967.

I think we have the tech to absolutely speed that process up and have something in record time. We haven’t seen a need for a huge vaccine effort in a long time so it’s hard to compare. I read about the Ebola vaccine and you aren’t talking about anywhere near the same problem. The problem Ebola faced was money and the need. In just the US we’ve had 10x the number of deaths due to CV in 3 months than all of the Ebola deaths in 2014-2016. People weren’t rushing to produce a vaccine that had less than 30k cases.

No idea when we’ll have one, but using Ebola as the standard isn’t a good example. There really isn’t a great one in today’s world. Heck even the tech advances in genetics and healthcare (and other assisting tech) in the past 6 years are huge.

Technology can't replace trials. Technology can help in the development but trials are trials.

No deaths today in NC reported.

Bottom line, if deaths do not start going up like positive cases, then the heck w shutting down.  Not sure how long we wait for the lag to catch up, I thought it was about 2-3 weeks, but here we are.  Who knows, could be 100 deaths tomorrow

    • I knew he was hedging for a raise.  
    • I definitely respect your opinion more than Tracy McGrady, Vince Carter, and Carmelo Anthony (whom I just watched on their show, all saying NOBODY wants to get the Hornets in the post-season). You win.
    • For all the good feelings about Bryce Young, when you read between the lines, it's what DC says and doesn't say that makes us know that Bryce hasn't necessarily been the supercomputer that they thought he would be. This season, Bryce has to make a tangible progression on the field. "A big part of it is being able to operate at the line of scrimmage — not in the huddle — when we want to, and he’s certainly capable of that," Canales said about Young. "It’s not solely on him. It’s a group that’s pretty young. You have to trust all the guys to go up there, communicate verbally or nonverbally and execute what we’re doing. We’ve made huge strides in that regard. His ability to alter things based on what they’re giving you will give us another edge, which he’s continued to grow and had some great examples down the stretch where he identified things they were doing, got us to the right check and capitalized on some plays. Want to see him do that more when it’s appropriate. We don’t need to be changing things just to change it." The implications, perhaps insinuations, are pretty evident. Bryce is just going to have to do better. "And then for Bryce, it’s the identification of early on the cues that the defense are giving us, to be able to eliminate parts of your progression before the ball’s even snapped. That happens with time. I’ve seen quarterbacks really own and master, which allows them to play lightning fast." Obviously Bryce isn't necessarily picking things up as fast as Canales would like, and I can only assume that Canales is making comparisons to Russell Wilson, Geno Smith and Baker Mayfield. But, of course, not everyone picks things up at the same rate. Bryce's pace has left Canales wanting for more. During the coming season, I don't believe that it will be good enough for Bryce to start putting things together in December, evidence of the light switch being on is going to have to show itself in September. Basically, it's really the moment that we've all been waiting for, the one that we thought should've happened earlier, the one that brings Bryce's accountability in the spotlight. On an off note, perhaps to that end, we should consider the possible implications upon the draft, but that's another story. Basically, it's time for Bryce to sh¡t or get off the pot. https://roundtable.io/sports/nfl/panthers/news/carolina-panthers-dave-canales-holds-nothing-back-on-bryce-young-in-new-interview
