    Crazy. That is definitely going to delay the 2020-2021 schedule as well I would assume. Normally bands can book that far in advance but wonder if this will affect a large group of bands from rebooking then from the spring cancelations until the pro sports teams get this figured out. 
    The seasons are going to be shortened. If they play to august, they next season probably won't start to December at best. Same with the NHL, the players unions will make sure all the members get their normal time off. They probably already have different scenarios being worked on for dates. Also the NBA/NHL takes precedent and the arenas won't book anything not already scheduled until the leagues get their new dates in.

    Still don’t care for the political part of the statement but it’s clearer now it was not premature. Hysteria is unwarranted but getting out in front of this seems to be a major factor in keeping numbers down.

    I'm going to the NASCAR race in Atlanta this weekend.  Assuming they don't cancel before then.

    The government just needs to rip the band aid off and declare martial law now. Put the entire nation under quarantine. Close all non essential businesses for the rest of the month. All transportation shut down.  Looks like it is going to happen anyway, might as well get it over with. 
    I said this to friends 3 weeks ago and they acted like i was nuts.  it's coming in certain cities in this country.

    and i'm not a prepper or a conspiracy theorist.  this was obvious weeks ago with what was happening in korea and japan and we sat on our thumbs and didn't even produce tests until people started dropping dead.
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    I'll be honest, If you had said it to me three weeks ago I would have reacted the same as your friends. I was wrong.

    Do you honestly feel that the US government had & has done everything it could have to prepare and prevent this outbreak? Ignore the president, I am talking about the government as a whole. That's why they expressed that statement. We've been let down by those in charge to protect other interests over health from a virus that we had time to prepare for.

    So there is no absolute truth anymore then, huh? Trust no one because theres nothing left to trust. 


    I guess this is the real damage done by Trump over the past few years.
    Is there? Have you heard it? It’s nearly impossible to dig through the spin.

    Most of that  damage has been there long before Trump  and will remain long after. 
    HAHAHAHAHA!!!!

    This fucking guy has spent FOUR GODDAMN YEARS spewing "Fake News" and "the main stream media is the enemy of the public" to his neanderthal group of zombie moron followers and you think he hasn't poured gasoline over everything and made it 100X worse?

    Sometimes I honestly need to ask myself if people have been watching the same thing as I have since this clown was elected.
    But he is a genius of himself
     

    January 22: “We have it totally under control. It’s one person coming in from China. It’s going to be just fine.”

    February 2: “We pretty much shut it down coming in from China.”

    February 24: “The Coronavirus is very much under control in the USA… Stock Market starting to look very good to me!”

    February 25: “CDC and my Administration are doing a GREAT job of handling Coronavirus.”

    February 25: “I think that's a problem that’s going to go away… They have studied it. They know very much. In fact, we’re very close to a vaccine.”

    February 26: “The 15 (cases in the US) within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero.”

    February 26: “We're going very substantially down, not up.”
    February 27: “One day it’s like a miracle, it will disappear.”

    February 28: “We're ordering a lot of supplies. We're ordering a lot of, uh, elements that frankly we wouldn't be ordering unless it was something like this. But we're ordering a lot of different elements of medical.”

    March 2: “You take a solid flu vaccine, you don't think that could have an impact, or much of an impact, on corona?”

    March 2: “A lot of things are happening, a lot of very exciting things are happening and they’re happening very rapidly.”

    March 4: “If we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work — some of them go to work, but they get better.” NOTE: The CDC advises people displaying symptoms to stay home and self-quarantine unless seeking medical care.

    March 5: “I NEVER said people that are feeling sick should go to work.”

    March 5: “The United States… has, as of now, only 129 cases… and 11 deaths. We are working very hard to keep these numbers as low as possible!”

    March 6: “I think we’re doing a really good job in this country at keeping it down… a tremendous job at keeping it down.”
    March 6: “Anybody right now, and yesterday, anybody that needs a test gets a test. They’re there. And the tests are beautiful…. the tests are all perfect like the letter was perfect. The transcription was perfect. Right? This was not as perfect as that but pretty good.”

    March 6: “I like this stuff. I really get it. People are surprised that I understand it… Every one of these doctors said, ‘How do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability. Maybe I should have done that instead of running for president.”

    March 6: “I don't need to have the numbers double because of one ship that wasn't our fault.”

    March 8: “We have a perfectly coordinated and fine tuned plan at the White House for our attack on CoronaVirus.”

    Current status: As of noon March 8, 2020, coronavirus is in 30 states plus the District of Columbia. Known U.S. cases exceed 400. The death toll stands at 19.

    March 9: “This blindsided the world.”

    Thank you @JP218404 - given the events of today, I thought it appropriate to bump this post. 

    And to think Coronavirus will be the buffoons reason to axe Pence strictly to add a female as a running mate. Insanity I tell ya!
    Yep thanks for bumping it , if I’m Bernie or Biden I’m blasting this at every event possible..
    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    We absolutely need to be reminded about this every day until November. This president has put every one of us in jeopardy with his lack of leadership, his lack of compassion, his disbelief in science and his inability to formulate and execute on plans. While no president could have prevented spread of this thing into our country, a leader could have responded much more quickly and with more resources to attack the problem head on, rather than hiding from it until now. Only this week, hell only yesterday did I think he even cared or started understanding the magnitude of the issue. Until yesterday it was business as usual, and golfing as usual. Never forget what his inaction and bad attitude in the face of crisis has resulted in.

    I wonder how this affects the availability of arenas for the rescheduling of the PJ tour.  With nhl and nba seasons now likely pushing well into the summer its not going to be easy to re-schedule.

    I’m not familiar with how they’ve reacted to past threats and it’s next to Impossible to find unspun projections so I couldn’t really say. Could have been sooner but it seems like a much stronger response than anything  I’ve seen in my lifetime.

    From what I’ve seen, some statements from doctors, stuff from CDC and WHO, some reason needs to be applied. Yes, save the lives we can but also, the numbers are only slightly more alarming than a fairly typical seasonal influenza and on par with recent pandemics
