You had said all along, religion is the only possible way they could challenge these lockdowns in court....already that has been proven to be false.

No, I said religion was the only CONSTITUTIONAL claim. That your stuff about due process is BS.

I was, in fact, the person who called your attention to the fact that the Wisconsin case could strike down restrictions, based on technical state law grounds.

And which you took completely out of context.

TLG is right about you.

14 day Hospital Deaths category seems like a real blocker for the Long Island Region. We are back to square 1 on the count to 14. New Hospitalizations also seem like a problem.

Some of the criteria for opening a region are pretty bad. A trend down in hospitalizations or deaths can be wildly favorable but if you have a single small 1 day blip up you have to start over to get to 14 straight days. I'd love know who the statistical wizard was that came up with that. At least use a 14 day moving average. There are going to be occasional random variations in things like this. As long as the trend is improving sharply a single day of data can be almost meaningless.

Let's use this "scientific" tracing to see how many cases can be traced to Belmont Park.

Funny, the idiot who MADE NYS the worst state for the virus is the one setting the criteria for re-opening.

Had it not been for HIM, we might never have had to lock down.

It seems they ARE using a 3 moving average, but imo even that is not good enough to reset you back 14 days if there happens to be a short term blip up in a continuing very favorable long term trend.

It's apparent to me that Belmont is OK to open.

All the data in the region is consistently improving (including at Belmont), virtually nothing will change by running races except for 60 extra employees who will I am sure they have strict protocol to protect, and other tracks are proving it can be done safely.
