After googling her name my suspicions were confirmed as she has a book now released after this video. There are anonymous accounts on this website which I believe to be true accounts based on watching half the video and reading these anonymous accounts.

    As always, there’s an alternate agenda with most everyone looking for attention. We may not come to the same conclusion, which is fine, but I urge you to read these accounts and refute them such as I watched the video.
    Good research. Welp. Enough about her. Thanks. Bullshit happens from all directions.

    But a book? Like with Bolton, follow the money.

    Commissioner press conference at 2pm. Many complaints about lack of distancing from pros and caddies last week at Hilton Head. Can’t imagine they will or should cancel anything at this point.
    If GOLF can’t pull off a tournament without bad news, what are the chances football or basketball can happen in just a few months? I know, he may have gotten it anywhere, but it seems like it would spread like wild fire in a football environment. I am not optimistic at this point.

    Interesting. It looks like you may be right, seems like they have a half dozen WDs but going on for the tournament (? ) for now
    Run the table.

    We have reached the level where roughly one-half of 1% of the world’s population now has an active COVID-19 case.

    .......as far as we know. I wish we had a REAL idea of how many people have been infected. The most trusted number we have is how many people have died. Even then, WITH Covid and BECAUSE of Covid are very different. Don’t get me wrong! I’m not downplaying it, I’m just not trusting BS numbers and media hype. Too many years in hurricane territory have taught me that this is similar. Very real, but not to be fully believed. They try to scare you, and in this case it might be a good thing.

    I hear you and agree. Take the numbers with a grain of salt. For me the estimated cases now being a tangible number (not fractions of a percent too small to comprehend) made me take pause.

    I do find it strange that the cases are popping now (and not just due to testing though that is the major contributor) in places that opened 2 months ago or were not locked down. Were people cautious after opening then got complacent? It’s a head scratcher for me.

    It's not rocket science...memorial day weekend, protests and ridiculous things like movie theaters and gyms opening up

    Right, but those things were 4+ weeks ago. Incubation period is average of 5-6 days, 12 max. We should have seen the jump in cases by early June, not late June.

    As an aside I don’t see that gyms or movie theaters are inherently risky if participants practice common sense (distance, hygiene, masks).

    Protests were a week or two ago, and sure none of those things are I inherently risk if x,y, z but I highly doubt guidelines are followed. I walked into a restaurant in tennessee a couple of days ago to pick up some takeout food, and apparently covid is completely gone...there were people basically sitting on top of each other.

    Did you get takeout from a Gentleman’s Club?
