Now provide a link to a study providing evidence that vaccination for measles or rubella would help in preventing an infection by this coronavirus (otherwise it's just another "fact" pulled out of your ass). And also explain why South Tyrol, the only area with a disastrously low vaccination rate, is not the most affected.

 

I'm entitled to a personal opinion so spare me the "evdience" talk. It's obviously mass hysteria down in Italy so nobody wants to hear about any evidence either :whistle:

I’m pretty sure people do want to hear about evidence when talking about things like this. If you can’t provide evidence for the “cures” you claim, you’re no better than the Iranian minister who claimed people should shove cotton balls up their asses. 
 

There’s a huge difference between fact and opinion. You’re entitled to your opinion, but you shouldn’t go around telling people it’s the facts when you yourself can’t even prove it.

Would be interesting to see what Hungary will do. It is reported that the HU Gov is now deliberating about, among others, limiting or suspending sport events and the decision will be published in the coming hours.

It is said that indoor events with more than 100 spectators cannot go ahead - this means koniec for handball for example (either continue it without spectators or cancel it altogether like you did with hockey) - probaly the most watched indoor sport in Hungary.

Curious as to what happens with football - not so much for the spectators, as a lot a matches have -in football terms- very few spectators anyway :D

 

Wrestling olympic qualification?

People don't want to hear about anything, they just want to cancel everything and hide in their basements hoping the coronavirus goes away. Classic mass hysteria BS. I don't have to prove anything about a health issue on a sports forum :bye: Plus mass hysteria swamping the world is one for psychology which doesn't really fit the sports criteria either. We've seen pandemic disease cause panic and throw common sense out of the window before. Good thing there was no TV and internet during the Spanish flu pandemic 100 years ago :p

You can listen to mass hysteria morons of this world instead. They are talking loud enough :coffee:

 

"I have facts"

 

"Ok, tell them."

 

"No because nobody wants to listen, but I have facts!"

 

"I'm all ears, please share them."

 

"No, the morons are talking loud enough, I won't share anything!"

 

Ugh.

It's hardly "mass hysteria".

 

What do you expect? That people would just shrug it off because having a new deadly virus is something that happens every other week?


What's more concerning is WHO still refusing to call it pandemics, even though plenty of experts suggest we are already way past that point.

    • It's true, but Colturi still only 1 person and for example in the men's slalom we have tragic results. In giant slalom again we last won many years ago. For example, Switzerland has a complete team, which has not only stars but also wide teams in every discipline + young successors.   Scattolo is an option after 2026. For now, all that remains is to count on Vittozzi's return - apart from her, no one is able to regularly stand on the podium.
    • That was the IBU Cup winner spot, guaranteed for the first two weeks (won by Michelon last year). Galmace Paulin will definitely not get a spot in January. If someone has to be demoted, it would be Chauveau, to make room for Botet. Galmace Paulin is like 5th or 6th in the pecking order at the moment.
    • Maybe Galmace Paulin can take The Spot of Richard, Michelon or Chauveau later this season. In Hochfilzen France Had 7 Spots, not sure What happened. If The french Team can get Back that Spot, then Galmace Paulin should be The First candidate.   Tannheimer, Michelon, Richard, Kirkeeide and Andersson are all more likely than Not To make The Podium this Season in my opinion. With a bit of luck, half The Top 10 in The Overall Ranking at The end of The Season could be athletes born in 2002 or later.
    • Biathlon: I think your Coaches should promote Scattolo.  Alpine skiing: Things Would Look very different if Colturi would Compete for You.  
    • It also appears 1 noc has withdrawn   https://oca.asia/news/5781-harbin-2025-awg-organisers-confirm-record-number-of-entries.html
    • If my figures are correct, I confirm that this is the international debut in top-level competition for Turkmenistan, Kuwait and Thailand. i believe it is also the debut in a senior competition for Mongolia
    • The Youth Olympic Games have used the group format before due to a large number of entries. The 2023 Winter EYOF also used a two group format in the mixed team event.   Still, it's cool to see so many nations registered for the Asian Winter Games. 
    • Stage 10 in Alta Badia (ITA)   Men´s Slalom:   1. Timon Haugan    1:45.40 2. Loic Meillard    1:46.53 3. Atle Lie McGrath    1:46.66   Full Final Results HERE
