For this study, researchers used a nebulizer device to put samples of the new virus into the air, imitating what might happen if an infected person coughed or made the virus airborne some other way.

They found that viable virus could be detected up to three hours later in the air, up to four hours on copper, up to 24 hours on cardboard and up to two to three days on plastic and stainless steel.

Well, we know Boar's safe.   :rotflmao:

And Mayo's live conference here on TV said it's about 3x as deadly as the flu...

The confernce Bball tournaments are still goin on today but with nobody in the stands. Lots of talk of 'em canceling the NCAA men's tourney too now. Only the NHL & MLB haven't done anything YET to keep people at home. As of a few minutes ago the PGA was still going about it's business as usual too & they get some huge crowds for some of their events. :crazy:

I just read that the NBA played their last game last night until they get a handle on this since a player now has Corona.

I'll head home at or shortly after lunchtime to feed bottle lambs and check on a couple ewes to come in yet. Will probably stay home to watch the Gophers-Hawkeye tilt just out of curiosity. With no one in the stands it'll be just like when the Gophers were on probation back in the 70's. We'd go over to a friend's frat right next to The Barn and get blasted. Then we'd go across the street at halftime where they'd let us in for free. As long as we slithered onto the inter-campus bus we avoided sleeping on the floor at the frat. Good times!  :happy1:

Hey that may be fun Dotch.  Hard to imagine no fans.  Some big NBA player said he doesn't even want to play if no fans are there.  Can't blame him.  SO the big thing here is whether there will be a handle on this before NFL starts.   :happy1:

Just heard PA say that a Utah Jazz player has been sloppy with his locker room touching etc and now another player has Corona on the team.

Wonder if all those Chinee open buffet things in town are gonna close? Perfect spot for people to sneeze, wheeze, and hack on everything, regardless of the canopied sneeze guard, which they prolly never sanitize....and stick one spoon in one dish then in another...talk about cross-contamination.

According to the MDH website, the 9 positives are cases in Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Olmsted, Ramsey and Stearns Counties.

Even the Trumpster could get it!
