If any one is interested Treson's Bismarck team plays #5 Minot on the psp network. Packed house. On right now
Watched the game in person. Eaglestaff could never get in a rhythm and Minot ended up winning handily. The biggest adjustment he'll have to make in college is on the defensive end, but he has a great skill set that should translate well for you guys.

Would gpr and devils lake be on board playing tier 2 hockey?
They could always opt up.

When I played Devils Lake was in the west and Jamestown was in the east. Wonder what changed to make them flip? Just my opinion, but if I was Jamestown I'd absolutely want to play in the east region. All those Fargo schools, and your worst bus trip is Grafton.
And for other sports Jamestown has Watford City, Williston, and Belcourt.

NDSU should come in with expectation of a sweep, they probably would be happy with a split because if you follow the mantra of sweep at home, split at home they would finish 12-4 and that would be good enough to win the league.
I think it is possible for UND to sweep, they should have beaten them in Sioux Falls. Its very likely that these two teams split next week.
Questions will be had on the availability of Ihenacho and DAE for next weekend, hope they are ready to go. This team is 2-2 right now with missing their starting PG in the ORU series and DAE doing next to nothing in 3 of the 4 games.
I feel confident, a 1/4 of the way into the season, that UND will finish with a better conference record than they did last year.
Yep. I don’t care what league you’re in or the disparity between the teams, you’ll always be happy with a split on the road.

I'd guess Trump since he created the vaccine?
But really, instead they are putting it all on the states. I'm sure none of it will be politicized (from either side).
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/11/30/trump-states-handle-vaccines-440798This is exactly how it should be. The one positive outcome from the pandemic is a return of some power to the states. I’m afraid this will be short-lived however and we’ll have a return to federal overreach.

Good response. We'll have to see, first of coarse he has to get to the 20th.
I've noticed you and a few poster responded to the Dog excuse. So what if it was a dog or dogs? What's the point here?
The Trumpers get upset over one little potential lie and T goes Nuclear every day #stopthestupid? HOW IS THAT, the blinders that good?
We can't have a complicit media in lockstep with one party of the government. This was the case in the former USSR and presently China.

I never understood all of the scuttlebutt around some Russian Facebook memes. ABC, NBC, CBS, the NYT, and WaPo have been interfering with elections for around 60 years...
It's because the Russian Facebook memes were for the 'wrong' guy.

If you've got a Roku, I'd suggest all of NHK World Japan, France24, SkyNews and Deutsche Welle. You need to be aware that they covering from the perspective of their home nations, but there is far more actual reporting and thoughtful analysis from actual experts, versus the opining from star anchors that passes for much of the news on now. From a print and online perspective, The Economist is absolutely top notch. Broad coverage of vast array of international issues, both political and economic. I miss that you can't get it with frequent flier miles anymore.
I’ve pretty much stopped consuming news because of all the misinformation but people who I respect have great things to say about The Economist. Have also heard the BBC does a pretty good job.
My politics can be described as an anti-left Libertarian.

The actual number of infections is much higher. Most models predict 4-6x the number of confirmed cases.

You are mistaken. Nixon was impeached. Impeached does not mean convicted.
Was Donald Trump impeached?
Nixon was not impeached. The House judiciary committee recommended impeachment but Nixon resigned before the full House could vote on the articles.

On 8/20/74 the full house voted 412-3 to accept the final Judiciary committee report so technically I don’t think that counts as being impeached.
Correct. Nixon was not impeached.

Glad to move on as I'm not going to get into a pissing match over something this absurd. I scanned that link and didn't see a single sentence about it not being highly contagious - what'd I miss? If it's not highly contagious, how are there so dang many cases? Can we blame testing some more?
I’m just giving you some crap. The link explains how COVID is transmitted primarily by close contact through actual droplets, rather than aerosol. It also goes on to explain how chickenpox, measles, and tuberculosis are efficiently spread by aerosol, i.e. those diseases are highly infectious. COVID is very middle of the road in this regard (thanks god).
The high case rate is best explained by the fact it’s a novel virus that the human body has never been subjected to before.-

Won't be in the 1st bunch/but hopefully soon. Will take any vaccine they have and will report how it works.
You’ll probably never know how it works in terms of efficacy. It will be interesting to see what kind of side effects there are though.

If i were you, I'd listen to the other information you've gotten about covid and not the opinion of some crackpot on this website. What's just left of alt-right? Yowza.
Dude. You were wrong about Covid being highly contagious. Forgot about it and move on. Here’s a link to help you out. It’s from that far-right organization the CDC though so I don’t know how credible it is. https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/more/scientific-brief-sars-cov-2.html

This is not what I have been led to believe. I hope you are correct.
This is true. However, saying ‘COVID-19 slightly more contagious than influenza’ doesn’t scare people and make headlines.

No one is scared by the total number of positives in ND. There aren’t enough people in ND for that number to be soooo scary. It absolutely is the daily positivity rates and the per capita rates that have people concerned.
And to the guy upthread talking about all the asymptomatic 5 - 39 year olds being incentivized to get tested and increasing the case numbers - do you have any data for that or did you pull it out of the air? And what incentives are you talking about? Is the incentive to know if you’re positive for the highly contagious virus overloading our hospital systems and causing many fatalities, or is there something more sinister at play here? WTAFI wouldn’t say COVID is highly contagious. It’s pretty much middle of the road and pretty comparable to influenza.

Trusting you are correct.
We will need more that 70% willing to take the vacine for that to happen. IMO
I’m obviously speculating. We’ll never have 70% vaccine acceptance, but you have to remember that this isn’t the first time a virus has jumped from another animal to humans. It’s very likely that this coronavirus will affect humans with similar effects to the 4 coronaviruses we currently deal with.
It certainly will be less virulent as time goes on. -

I see a lot of curves on here that are turning the correct way.

Correct. Hopefully Burgum will have the courage to reduce mitigation efforts as these metrics come down.

If we contnue the current path we are on, When will the virus flame out?
It will be different depending on where you’re at. States/countries that have imposed stronger mitigation efforts will see this drag out. In North Dakota active will plateau in the next 14 days. They’ll decrease pretty slowly and hospitalizations and deaths will lag. By the time a vaccine rolls out on a wide scale we’ll probably have daily cases in the low hundreds.
Next year at this time we’ll probably have a daily caseload in the mid double digits. This is presuming we still have testmania going on. Hospitalizations will be a handful a month with maybe a death or two per month.

US covid sgges o far today.
64,000 new cases/994 deaths. Once again well on the way to over 100,000 new cases and 2,000 deaths. Our country cannot sustain these daily #'s
Unless there are some significant behaverable changes we will not have to worry about a lock down. It will take care of itself. Bars, resturants, grocery etc.
will find in nearly impossible to find workers. Our hospitals, now near or at capcity will be unable to serve all.
It is now esstimated there will be 50 million new cases by February
Your prediction about bars, restaurants, etc. will only come to fruition if we continually to quarantine healthy people. This virus will flame out like all other viruses do. My only concern is how we as a society react when it does.
For example, the CDC issues travel guidances for countries based on COVID levels. Level 1 is a daily case rate of 5/100,000; this would equate to 38 daily cases or less in North Dakota. The CDC recommends masks and distancing at this level. We’ll have levels in this range forever, so what’s the end game?-

Guess I did not make it clear,
I realize there is a mask mandate in place and some common sense measures have been ordered that if everyone complies will slow down the out of control virus which is the worst in the world,
You think this virus is the ‘worst’ in world history, or North Dakota’s case count is the worst in the world?
