Zamboni Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Yea ... it looks like it’s gonna be shut down for a bit... maybe 2-4 weeks? Then reevaluate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
French Collection Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 My son and I were going to the Raptors game on Saturday. Mixed emotions but I am happy it is cancelled. We got the tickets for Christmas and were looking forward to this trip. I was getting anxious over the last few days of being in a big crowd like that as cases were increasing in Toronto. Be safe folks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 If this winds up delaying when we find out Jason's fate, and next year's roster, I will be agonized. Of course, I would agree with it 20000000% 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ogre Posted March 12, 2020 Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 6 minutes ago, bob_sauve28 said: canned goods Go freeze dried. Years ago in my bush whacking/hiking/survivalist experiments, I dehydrated a good many food items and reconstituted in the field for decent meals. I’ve even successfully dehydrated ground beef. As I’ve aged and became busier I switched to the freeze dried. I picked up a three day kit 10 yrs ago that I had hoped to never need. I figured that would be my grab-n-go kit in a last ditch effort....ten years later I think it may be more reasonable to just accept my fate, whatever that may be at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because it's essentially impossible to do more. This isn't about stopping it; it's about slowing it down. There is no stopping it. Angela Merkel (sp?) of Germany stated that ~70% of all Germans will contract the virus. The questions is, over what period of time will those infections occur.

There are some scary estimates about the percentage of people who will be exposed to it (but not necessarily get infected by it, I assume).
