  1. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    There are many things they have to balance. There are many interests involved and they (IOC) will not get compensated by insurance companies unless they make every attempt possible to hold the Olympics.
  2. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    Is there good evidence that respirators/ventilators improve survival rates in people sick enough to use them?
  3. Large Table Tennis Shoes

    I think squash/volleyball/badminton are your best bet. Good luck if you find anything better because I would like to know too.
  4. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    If you have the stomach to sit through some of the briefings, the blatant campaigning is nauseating.
  5. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    This is interesting even if only a simulation. https://www.cityam.com/coronavirus-may-have-infected-half-of-uk-population-according-to-experts/
  6. Is your club closed because of corona?

    And I think that is the main difference - you have a population smart enough to take these things seriously - very few people I suspect will get sick and go and hide. Most will self-quarantine. It will be interesting to see the outcome and see whether central government controls would have...
  7. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    I agree that the quality of evidence based on the news article is low. That said, I still find blaming the President for people taking aquarium cleaner is a bit much. But to each his own. My main point is that the President wasn't going on zero evidence - after all you feel/felt that...
  8. Why do CNT players still use carbonado 45 if theres 245?

    The 245 is also an interesting blade. I don't think most players would like it. It is a bit fast when you hit but slower when you loop hard. So guaging the speed is hard. Also Carbonado 45 is not as slow as it seems. I am currently using it and like it a lot. The 145 is also a good medium...

    Chloroquine has been arguably effective in treating many people. The argument between Trump.and Fauci was about evidential standards and not about whether the drug was really promising or not. Someone who saved his life after using chloroquine places credit with the drug. Trump didn't tell...
  10. Is your club closed because of corona?

    The fact that the Spanish government sounds just like the US government did before the pandemic did might say something. But maybe not...

    You think this skills will degrade enough that Fan becomes unstoppable or LYJ and Harimoto get too strong? I don't think so. I think the extra one year gives him time to get healthier.
  12. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    Andy Smith The people who died didn't even take chloroquine drugs. They took chloroquine phosphate meant for fish tanks. We need to draw the line somewhere at personal responsibility. I don't think people over 70 years old should be permitted to be Presidents and I agree that Trump is an...

    A disease poses great risk to the most powerful voting demographic in the US and the guy wants to sacrifice them. He has balls even if his values are moronic.
  14. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    Give me a break. Even in Nigeria people started self dosing chloroquine stupidly and at least they were taking real pills not stuff to be put in fish tanks. You can't account for every stupid thing people will do because of what someone said.
  15. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    They have enough resources to measure cases that are serious and record them but not enough to save everyone. In some poorer countries, the awareness isn't there to make the measurements. The low case load in Africa wo far might mean something but I won't speculate anymore because I really...
  16. Advice on equipment for improving

    No it is not okay to keep using the Viscaria. Any 5 ply all wood blade is better to develop your game. As for rubbers, I think until one reaches USATT 1800 or TTR 1400 or even a bit beyond, the fastest rubber one should use is Vega Pro or Vega X even if that. Fastarc G1 or C1 as well. The...

    Yeah but people travel all over the world and not every country is affected the same way. And if next September or October is the next wave. I have already pointed out that if people have issues with diabetes, going low carb is an option to improve your health. I know people made it sound here...
  18. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    During this coronavirus situation I think you are out of luck.
  19. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    That makes sense. Any justification that weighs things so clearly at least gives people an insight into what is happening. I don't think you will kill 480K people in the near term through economic disclocation.
  20. Caronavirus & Tokyo 2020

    Visible deaths and suffering always trump the suffering of the unseen. Especially if the unseen are "projected" or "theoretical".
