[fishonjazz]

My step dad just got back from a trip with his gf to Italy. I'm staying the **** away from that guy. My brother lives with him.

My co worker is going to Italy end of april

testing is expensive as hell here. I’m hearing accounts of $500-$600 with insurance and $1,500+ without.

and that’s if you meet the criteria of:

recently traveled abroad and/or been in contact with someone who has been confirmed sick with it.

ridiculous. Soooooo many more people are sick with this thing.

At those prices I know I won't ever get tested voluntarily

Sorry I have trouble feeling bad for Rudy after his douchy rubbing of the microphones.

Even if he doesn’t die I read that the severe cases can have long recoveries and have long term effects on lungs... which given his profession would be not good. Hope like hell he and the other team personnel are healthy. This **** is scary and people taking it lightly very well may end up feeling as dumb as Rudy dies for the mic joke.

The odds of his contracting it from those microphones is like a million to one. Which means it's probably much more prevalent in the NBA as well as the general population than anyone realizes.

Andy Larsen on CNN right now.

Then the stupid host was scolding Gobert for touching the microphone. Guess what, he also touched the door knob as he left.

So who thinks that someone who used those microphones after gobert touched them will try to sue Rudy if they also get the virus?

I don't think that case would get far but there is always someone.

He was already feeling better. He wanted to play tonight. Everyone knows when you get a flu the first part is the worst, the stuffy nose and sore throats are just annoying.

Andy, Tony Jones, and Sarah are not covered by nba check book. But spend tons of time close to the players and have likely been exposed.

Prayers for them. And pleas to the millionaires and billionaires who are made rich in part because of the writers....please help these three get home and get tested.

I agree it’s a bad look though

Agreed, I just think of all the interviews conducted after he finished. He was just being a goof, and I doubt very much it was contracted by anyone else because of it, but you're right, it's not good from a PR perspective.

I’d wager the amount of minor cases is significant and you have to look at the underlying reason Rudy was tested was because of technicalities and not because of medical necessity, evidenced from him being ready to go if it was negative.

There’s a bit of a selection bias of tests are being reserved for those with high suspicion of having the virus — you’ll expect a higher proportion of positive tests than if you’re randomly testing people. People like Rudy and Tom Hanks are found positive not because the virus has a predisposition for the rich and famous, but because they’re rich and famous they’re being tested.

tl;dr this is already here, and because the scarcity of tests, only those with high suspicion are getting tested.

tl;dr x2 lots of mild cases out there that aren’t reaching the level triggering testing.
