Good job I have good broadband at home to keep all you MMadsters in check XD

Rudy gobert Utah saints basketball player. What a cok.

For those who don't know. He did a interview a few days ago. At the end of interview he touched every microphone to show he's not scared of catching c9.
Yesterday he tested positive for Corona virus.

Every time I hear someone say Covid 19 I expect it to be followed by Sheffield Wednesday nil.

What's the viral infection int soutern hemisphere? Is the heat of a summer going to stop it or slow it down?

Heat does not directly affect the virus. Transmission rates are likely to be lower when it is warm enough for people to be outdoors as opposed to being gathered together inside.

We're only seeing the effects of the virus in the northern hemispere on the news as you expect but with spring and summer just a month away will we see a natural decrease of folk with the virus?

It would be interesting to see what's going on down under wouldn't you think?

Transmission rates may fall very marginally, but not to a degree that would make a difference.

Tom Hanks has just been taken I'll in Australia with it.

Actually, probably very easily. With iFollow every game is already streamed online to people overseas. With cloud computing scaling such systems is now trivial at the click of a button.

They'd just need to get every ticket holder set up with an active iFollow account.
