Bingo! And I'll reiterate this point.....even with a vaccine there will still be at a minimum 50% of this country's population that will be at risk due to not wanting to get the vaccine or the vaccine not being effective.

Bismarck ND pivots on face to face classes. District superintendent is quoted..."As a community, we need to do all we can to lower our numbers." Again the goalpost have completely switched in this country. Not about flattening the curve, not about deaths, not about hospitals being overwhelmed.....just about "numbers" now. As Sic has mentioned numerous times.....this is a virus we are dealing with but lemmings will be lemmings.

NCAA Chief Medical Officer Dr. Brian Hainlie stated 1-2% of all student athletes tested so far by colleges and universities nationwide have been positive. (Again positive doesn't equate to being sick) Can't wait until we get to zero positive cases to resume college athletics in this country. ........but at least these kids will have more time now to go spend with their grandparents.

Masks...……..the American panacea. Per the CDC going back to '04-'05 the vaccine efficacy for the influenza vaccine has ranged from a low of 10% to a high of 60% any given year but the COIVD vaccine, when available, will get us back to "normal"....right?

The NSIC just canceled all fall sports.......those in LTC facilities just breathed a sigh of relief.

The Blues have been awful during the restart.

"Worsening health crisis"........IALTO. Especially in GF and Cass counties where your two major state universities are. Apparently the "in class wear a mask" mandate isn't the answer.

My daughter just informed me this morning that of her 6 classes (18 credits) at UND her class schedule has been changed again. She's down to one class face to face. One hybrid and 4 online. Ridiculous. Another lame college experience this fall semester brought to you by UND. Obviously too many Dexter Perkins type professors on campus.

Over 64 minutes TOI

83 so far....

Korpisalo with 75 saves........so far.

IALTO

Heard from someone with ties to the Fargo Public School system that their hybrid model is just a temporary gig to appease parents and get kids acquainted with teachers before they move fully online by early October. I really hope this isn't the case or has been the undisclosed plan for awhile. BTW Cass County hasn't had a death in 29 days.

Macalester College pivots today to start school year strictly online. Guess they didn't feel masks were the cure all? At $56K/year it would be nice to see 50% or more of the currently enrolled students for this fall tell the college and administration "Screw you. I'm not coming back for online classes." BTW no double digit deaths in a day in almost 6 weeks in MN and 75% of deaths from LTC facilities.

That the new student union will finally be done by......2026???

Cass County in ND has the highest number of total and active cases in the state yet the last death in Cass County was 28 days ago IIRC.

Summit League just postponed fall sports.

"Effective" on the vaccine front according to Fauci and the CDC is 50% or above.

ND HS FB practice started today. #wearafacemasksavelives

Basically a core group of underachievers. Alway great to see the handshake line.

To get a SJW badge and certificate is it still just mailing in $20 along with 2 Fruity Pebbles box tops? Asking for a friend........

Big 10 to announce tomorrow no fall FB

Could the NWS and local TV weather stop interrupting my watching of the PGA Championship and the NHL?? Don't they know none of us should be concerned about a possible tornado during this pandemic? #saferathome #flattenthecurvenotmyhouse

No idea if any correlation but there's a guy that regularly sends letters to the editor to the Fargo Forum with almost identical verbiage as Haydouche1. Heaven forbid there's potentially two a##holes like that out in society.

OK Mrs. Osterholm
