The presumptive case is an adult female resident of Nashville. She has mild illness and is isolated at home.


Weird thing about this virus is she is not sick enough to be in the hospital.

There is more risk going to Walmart or the grocery store then going to the tournament.

Everyone needs to quit going to the grocery store asap.

The Ags are used to playing in empty gyms. It would be a home court advantage for us.

Downtown Nashville Walgreens is sold out of hand sanitizer.

Road gator strolls over to aisle 12 and grabs a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Suck it corona virus.

To make sure I’m adding plenty of IPAs because science while I wait for my coworker to arrive.

Because it's a very mild virus and unless you are elderly and/or have a weakened immune system, it's not a big deal.

More people have died from the flu.

Cornavirus: Approximately 3,653 deaths reported worldwide; 17 deaths in the U.S., as of Mar. 8, 2020.

Flu: 291,000 to 646,000 deaths worldwide; 12,000 to 61,000 deaths in the U.S. per year.

But the media pumps up the story for attention, so people lose their fricking minds over it.

He’s been researching this off his neighbor’s WiFi. Let him talk.

So tired of the fear mongering. You’re not going to die from this unless you’re old and/or in fragile health.

Quit being a chicken shite bitch. I hate society.

Should be more tickets available now, especially with all of the Rupp geezers being high risk

Of course, UK fans are the only sec fan base that cares to attend this event anyway

That's not even how the virus works.

You're unlikely to die from it unless you in an at-risk group, which includes:
age > 65,
people with asthma,
people with autoimmune disorder.

However, your understanding that it is only a mild virus unless you are old is incorrect.

You can still get very sick (respiratory problems, no serious risk though) even if you are perfectly healthy. The statistic I saw was ~15% chance of getting seriously ill vs. mild or no symptoms.

The only option is to play the tournament at Georgia Tech in front of only parents.

The person lived in Nashville, therefore it could impact others in Nashville even if said person has been moved to Kentucky


I'm just wondering how much the Mayor of Nashville had to pay to get this case moved out of state. Not that I mind.

4 out of 5 sounds right.
I read 15%, which is actually a slightly better prognosis but there is admittedly not sufficient data for that difference to matter.
