Rudy has Covid 19

All this tracing of contact may be fairly irrelevant very soon other than for academic purposes. The fact that Rudy and Mudiay have it, from an angle, can be positive if we realize it’s already here and its incidence is already much higher than thought. Bigger issue, from my view, would be downstream effects of those needing intensive care.
That absolutely is the issue.
 
If Gobert ends up recovering quickly, supposedly he felt healthy enough to play already, maybe he can serve as proof that the majority of people don't need to worry and help people calm people the **** down.

On the other hand, if it's anything but a quick recovery, people would probably freak out even more

So much info out there, hard to know what is real. In that light....i read the cough sets in on day 4 or 5 and that is when serious issues start.
 
Welcome to American healthcare. Maybe just maybe this will wake people up that have their heads in the sand and get them to question what’s going on in this country.

When I lived in Canada my coworker and friend had a broken arm. The type where you see the deformity in the arm. He had to just live with it for 6 months because it wasn't urgent enough for care. My sister in law "tore" while giving birth. That was a 5 month delay. Believe me... the grass isn't always greener.
 
Rudy touching the microphones has been blown way out of proportion ...

Everyone knows Rudy is blind as a bat and was searching for his contacts
 
Rudy likely touched a lot of things...

And Corona virus isn't going to kill Rudy. But it has about a 9% lethal rate on your dad or grandma depending on their age. If it spreads quickly to 200 million citizens in the US then we it could conceivably kill upwards of a million people. It could potentially mutate as well. So, it is a formidable issue that may impact many.

All of those people are touching, signing into, or holding microphones constantly.

Originally from Peru but having lived in several countries, including UK, Germany, Phillipines, Ecuador, Mexico and quite recently US, let me tell you, the healthcare system in US sucks donkey balls. Had to pay thousands of dollars for a decent insurance and even then, securing an appointment was extremely hard unless it was an emergency. Furthermore, didn't want to say this, but my dad was diagnosed with cancer. He is a US resident, soon to be citizen. Treatment couldn't be covered by the insurance so he has to travel regularly to Peru to get checked. Tests came positive so he is having a second surgery in Peru in a couple of weeks. Luckily he has access to a pretty good insurance/healthcare there. He can't afford healthcare in US. Great doctors/ infrastructure but terrible/unequal access. I guess it works for some ($$$) but don't assume it does for everyone.

Thanks Obamacare!
 
Lol, wtf did people think was going to happen? The virus to just suddenly stop in the US? I mean did we really think people weren't going to get sick? Rudy will be fine... An extremely vast majority of us will be fine. I understand the precautions but absolutely losing our minds over this is far more scary to me.
 
Prolly got it from new york. Cos the virus takes about 14 days after incubation to show symptoms.

I reckon new york is a bit boned
