What's this?

Maybe initially, because we've become so conditioned to...

...distrust what we read/see. But I think if there was somehow a magical source of information that was truly objective, over time a majority of people would come to trust it.

I guess we'll never know, though.

Love you Coach ** -- Stork 07/10/2020 4:27PM

I've considered it and have said as much here a few times. -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 4:14PM

It is ironic for me in the sense that I have ALWAYS been a risk taker. -- Coach McGuirk 07/10/2020 4:25PM

That last sentence is brilliance. -- Stork 07/10/2020 3:24PM

That falls under the category of Duh? The problem’s 90% of the media is -- Hoakie82 07/10/2020 4:37PM

Some of us would like to see media objectivity. -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:37PM

I am right leaning with a libertarian streak, but persuadable. -- HokieHutch 07/10/2020 5:08PM

He is the best poster on this topic IMO. At least he brings data -- HokieHutch 07/10/2020 3:58PM

Only your opinion matters it seems, you totally bash -- fordham 07/10/2020 3:43PM

I love you to. I didnt believe i am shoving anything. Just sharing and -- ColoVT82 07/10/2020 3:33PM

Your stuff is very informative, for some it is not right to not agree -- fordham 07/10/2020 3:45PM

Many of us appreciate your posts. I enjoy looking at the data... -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:41PM

TY. I drop in data when i find to be informative or thought provoking ** -- ColoVT82 07/10/2020 3:46PM

And I welcome it. Please continue posting. ** -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:47PM

Yes. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 07/10/2020 3:49PM

Just carry on. Ignore the grumpies. ** -- PhotoHokieNC 07/10/2020 3:34PM

Well said, Photo. I agree. I appreciate his perspective. ** -- MP4VT2004 07/10/2020 3:47PM

68% have antibodies. Does not guarantee immunity presently. -- Stork 07/10/2020 3:15PM

Have you ever noticed that C-19 is the first virus that we've been warned.. -- EDGEMAN 07/10/2020 3:47PM

It might be that we don't have enough empirical evidence that has -- ElbertoHokie 07/10/2020 4:01PM

My point is that no one ever said that about a previous "flu" virus. -- EDGEMAN 07/10/2020 4:21PM

Or it was biologically engineered ** -- TomTurkey 07/10/2020 4:58PM

HIV? ** -- Stork 07/10/2020 3:58PM

Good point, but I was referring to "flu" type viruses. -- EDGEMAN 07/10/2020 4:01PM

Here you go. Apparently the common cold is caused by the Rhinovirus. -- Stork 07/10/2020 4:09PM

Good, now we have a test sample to follow if that's true or not. ** -- `lag 07/10/2020 3:43PM

On the flip side, people may not need antibodies to be immune. -- RoswellGAHokie 07/10/2020 3:21PM

Yep. ** -- ColoVT82 07/10/2020 3:12PM
