I just wish each country was apples to apples, so we could really compare what's going on.  You have a few countries flat out lying about their cases and deaths they are reporting, but just importantly you have countries who are barely testing.  Its like the countries who are testing the most and reporting accurately are being viewed as the bad guys in all of this, when it should be the other way around.

Agree. Here the talk has been about the number of ICU patients, hospital parients and the number of deaths. And not about the confirmed number of cases.

Sweden has a big problem with the testing. In the beginning there was not enough material because it was used when the initial tracing was done on people visiting Italy and Austria. 

Seems like they actually succeeded to contain that spread. The strains that has affected most people has its origin from Britain and France. (Some from the US.)

Then there was a shortage of testing material when the whole world tried to buy whatever was on the market.

Now there is a laboratory capacity of 100k per week but the regions (states) who are responsible for the health care only do about 28-32k tests. Utterly failure.

 

People mentioned age of the dead. Sweden currently 4350 reported deaths.

0-9 1 infant

10-19 0 people.

 20-29 0,2% (8)

30-39 0,3% (12)

40-49 1% (42)

50-59 3% (132)

60-69 7% (303)

70-79 22% (955)

80-89 41% (1789)

90+ 25% (1108)

Hope you're not insinuating that postal employees are stealing your packages.  It is next to impossible for postal employees to get away with stealing packages. 

Literally just watched USPS employee zoom by my house without stopping and marking my package delivery as complete.  So yea...

My USPS guy today had a broken horn on his truck. It was blaring like a stolen car as he drove around the neighborhood. Good times.

My package was medical supplies and USPS driver was running 3 hours behind.  So my stuff is likely in the garbage or stolen.  On the phone now to report the delivery person.

It had 1 Oz of CBD flower in there that looks and smells like weed.  I ordered 3 packages that got shipped thru USPS and all 3 went missing.

Use UPS for anything important if you can.  We dont play that poo.  Especially critical care packages.  If the building shuts down for bad weather such as ice storm or something we still make sure we deliver all next day air and critical packages.

Definitely report it,  sounds like it might be your carrier.  If someone is taking your stuff they will figure out who.

About 95% of the deaths are 60+.  Again, it illustrates that demographic should use the utmost caution.  Granted everyone should, but especially these people.

UPS only wishes they could be as reliable as USPS.

More people under 40 probably got killed by falling trees in that survey

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
