I’m dumbfounded that the coronavirus has necessitated the cancellation of next week’s Motogp race. Could never have imagined that the effect of this could reach something like our sport, although I now believe that if this event has been cancelled, nothing is off limits moving forward in terms of other things that will be cancelled/closed, etc. Still running Moto2 and 3, though.... sucks STeve

Are you really that surprised? There’s a travel advisory on Italy. Only way it could be more disruptive would be if it was Spain AND Italy. I just called my brother to check the cancellation policy on a motor coach he rented for Sebring. It’s two international race series this year at Sebring. I don’t see how they will be able to do it. National events maybe. International events, those get complicated when the quarantine is 2 weeks.

Yea, I guess it’s not unexpected. I was in N. Carolina for a family wedding for the last 3 days-I think I fell into a bit of a “free from worries" world outside my normal box for a few days, and came home with a bit of a wonderfully over optimistic feeling. Not that it isn’t/wasn’t a fantastic diversion from our crazy world……….. maybe like Pags snowboarding out in Montana last week…….. ;-) STeve Hoping the shit doesn’t hit the fan here in the US……. > On Mar 1, 2020, at 4:04 PM, Vicki Smith <vicki@ducati.net> wrote: > > Are you really that surprised?

Okay, here's the thing. What we forget is: considering the incubation period, the s**t has already hit the fan, you just don't know it yet. Are there 2 asymptomatic people in your town right now, or is it 20? You won't know till the first people infected start showing symptoms. By then, how many other people will they have infected? For example: as I write this, I am sitting in my room in Valencia Spain. I have not looked recently, but as far as I know, there are no cases of COVID-19 here. But, the team and many fans just returned from the football match (soccer in the USA) in Italy (Milan, I believe, the city with a big red dot for infection rates). And, over the coming two weeks, we celebrate las Fallas, which will draw tourists from all over Europe, all crowding together in public squares to see the festiviites. Yup, petri dish for viruses. The football fans may provide the viral injection. As much as I will miss the opener at Qatar (well, actually, I've never liked the race under floodlights), I get it. Until we get a bit of a handle on this virus, we need to stop creating mass vectors. Achoo.

Don't tell anyone about the regular virus--from the CDC--CDC estimates that so far this season there have been at least 32 million flu illnesses, 310,000 hospitalizations and 18,000 deaths from flu.

Agreed but the ever present Norovirus kills 1k every year, and my fear is that the new world panic will cancel everything every year when it's just part of every day life.
