I was wrong...we might still pass 250k today. Texas boosted the number with 200 dead. Michigan's 123 with the solid silver medal.
175K cases so far reported and 1300 dead."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

If it were a big deal, then they'd have to do something about it. So much easier to just dismiss it out of hand.
What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

So some updates-
There are now 5 cases on the ship. All from the same party.
And my speculation seems pretty close- the original person was tested 72 hours prior to boarding. And then had symptoms quickly- well within the margin of time of incubation between the test and getting sick. Boarding was Saturday (so testing was Wed?) and the first positive test was Tuesday.
So the procedure should be just like pro sports- quick and immediate before boarding. Otherwise, given the required travel to cruise, you are playing with fire.
edit- now 7. And apparently if you have tested negative, you can fly home tomorrow. hmm... given that masks were not required until someone actually tested positive after showing symptoms, I'm not sure about that.
edit 2- reading through some more of a thread on cruise critic- it's quite safe to say that many of the passengers are selfish and stupid. They protested the fact that the ship required them to wear masks after an outbreak happened- as if they could get away with not wearing one. And the ship is letting people outside at specific times to prevent people from gathering- naturally, the few people outside are gathering w/o masks.
Wow, these people are both dumb and in denial- given they flew in the middle of a major uptick in cases.
Theres a reason they say wait 5 days after exposure.Code:As of 9/21/10: As of 9/13/10: College Hockey 6 College Football 0 BTHC 4 WCHA FC: 1

The 25th American to die this morning was the lucky 250,000th.
The world is at 1.3M and has already exceeded the April highs. Worldwide yesterday, 10k died and there were 650k new cases. That's one Washington DC getting sick every 24 hours.Last edited by Kepler; 11-14-2020, 05:16 AM.Cornell University
