Default Spring Carlisle

Thought about going to spring Carlisle that started today, but there was a news headline that the Pennsylvania health department is sueing them for having the show.

Is anyone there? Or known if its getting shut down?

It was foolhardy of the organizers to proceed despite all of the other car-related events being cancelled in the state. Evidently they didn't seek the state health department's approval or they asked the wrong person.

The whole idea of cancelling mass events and quarantine was to keep hospitals from being overwhelmed with cases..it never happened.Over 50% of the deaths so far are seniors in nursing homes,a lot due to policies that put them directly in harm's way. This has gone well beyond a simple public health issue.

The news I've seen is from a day or two ago. Is it happening? Has anyone been there?

There is a thread on the H.A.M.B. regarding this. There is something going on out there.

Sorry, not obvious to me. Nor to many others, I would surmise.

It's on, lightly attended. Wolf went to court to shut it down, it's being appealed, lots of drama. Article here - https://www.pennlive.com/news/2020/0...D1BwJCRluGX_dg

The country is going to have to start opening up sometime, someway, soon. Maybe this is how it will happen.

The judge in post #3 seems to make sense to me. Guys I know who are down there
are masked as need be and certainly refrain from shoulder to shoulder. Just exercising
their rights.

I've been doing everything possible to catch it for 3 months now. What am I doing wrong. We are all going to die someday of something. If you knew you had 3 months to live, how would you feel about the government cancelling the last 3 months of your life.
What no one is discussing is the number of deaths from this quarantine. That might make it inconvenient. It's like putting in a cam because you like the lumpy idle but the car runs like crap at every other point. Let's just ignore that.

There is more than enough hospital beds,millons was spent building tent hospitals that werent used.The Navy hospital ships werent used.Quarantine isnt necessary,social distancing is debatable..if you have co morbidity or geriatric (not old,ancient ) take precautions..other than that its all politics and loss of freedom.
