Re: Coronavirus SARS-Cov2 (COVID-19)

Jai, your data sources seem to be wrong on this. Please check. The CFR of vaccinated people, as of May 1st, which was the date when CDC stopped reporting the total number of breakthrough infections, was less than 1.00, so it had dropped to at least half (see this article )... More like 0.9% But tha...

Re: Coronavirus SARS-Cov2 (COVID-19)

^^^ I think 0.2% is pretty much the CFR after vaccination. .... About 8 to 12 times fewer deaths than without vaccination. CFR has NOT gone down in countries that have significantly ramped up vaccinations this year . This is true in countries with the current highest vaccination rates. For example,...

I am starting to think that Berretini and Medvedev are going to make deep runs this Wimby.

Re: Wimbledon 2021

The other problem was, Rohan overdoes the "you" screaming in between cruicial points, If all Rohan was doing well was serving and yelling "you", then may be the best match strategy was for him to serve, yell "you" and then go sit down by the side of the court till the ...

OK, Suresh, I will add your forecast to the tracking for the next 2 weeks. More the merrier in this game of guessing what the virus is going to do.

Re: WTA Tour/Non-India Fed Cup

^^^ Too late to edit my above comment, but I realize now after a private conversation that my comment about Serena possibly playing the wheelchair draw to get to 24 Slam titles was more mean-spirited than funny. I hope that Serena recovers quickly and is able to compete at the USO. I certainly don't...

Re: WTA Tour/Non-India Fed Cup

Apparently the grass sweats when the roof is closed causing it to feel like playing on an oil slick. So bad that there are so many injuries already. Roger Federer seemed very likely to.lose against Mannarino. Until poor Adrian was denied a memorable victory due to injury. Serena has looked wobbly on...

Re: Coronavirus SARS-Cov2 (COVID-19)

This is a really good read. From a US news outlet, written by Aparna Gopalan from Boston (who is seemingly an out-and-out leftist) India's Vaccine-makers are Pandemic-Profiteers, Not Humanitarians ...the issue really was a matter of how much profit the vaccine-makers can make.... This is one topic ...

Re: ATP Tennis/Non-India Davis Cup

Federer not looking good at all in his first round match against Mannarino. Moving tentatively. His forehand is a shadow of what it was even 2 years ago. He's pushing at it not swinging freely and fully. Racket head speed is way down. He seems down on himself. This against a talented journeyman. Mig...

Re: Coronavirus SARS-Cov2 (COVID-19)

Thx, Jay. Btw, anyone else as confused as I am watching Wimbledon? Almost no one is wearing masks and spectators seem to be at full capacity. I thought the Wimbledon organizers said before the tournament started that they would allow 50% capacity. That's on the one hand. On the other hand, there's a...

Re: ATP Tennis/Non-India Davis Cup

I have been missing from the forum for a bit so bringing back an old discussion. As a Nadal fan, I have to sourly admit that Djokovic has now taken a clear lead in the GOAT stakes. I am a bit surprised he took Wimbledon given how the next gen has no idea on how to play on grass and at worse, he wou...

Re: Coronavirus SARS-Cov2 (COVID-19)

... Pretty clear that vaccinations prevented at least 20 or 25 deaths among the Punjab policemen. Wow! That's impressive! Apparently even the policemen that were shot in the head or pierced by swords by miscreants did not die after receiving the second jab! 😁 Speaking of jabs, they are using a spec...
