Cancellations Courtesy of Coronavirus
« on: March 10, 2020, 02:14:46 PM »
No racing today March 10, 2020.   No reason given.   Racing cancelled.  Best guess is that they are not racing in order to hide all of the SCRATCHED horses.  The FBI may have told them to close.   Casino executives have called an emergency meeting.  French Trotting distancing itself.   It's over, although they will double-draw for Monday and Tuesday on Thursday.

Where do you get that information that he had the Corona Virus?  I am not saying you are wrong, but John has been sick for 20 years.  He has had at least 5 heart attacks and kidney disease.

https://www.harnessracing.com/news/main/yonkers-raceway-cancels-tuesday-race-card-3-10-2020

Yonkers Raceway has announced that Tuesday night’s live race card has been canceled. While no other explanation was made with the announcement, there are rumors that the cancellation is due to possible coronavirus concerns. Harnessracing.com has been unable to confirm that with Yonkers Raceway officials.

Tuesday morning, John Brennan, the horsemen’s representative at Yonkers Raceway, died at age 69. Harnessracing.com was told Brennan was admitted to a New Jersey hospital last Friday (March 6) and was tested for the virus. A story posted on NJ.com Tuesday confirmed that a 69-year-old man who traveled back and forth to New York a lot had become the first person in the state to succumb to the virus.

Sources have also told harnessracing.com that a paddock worker has also been hospitalized, and some horsemen have also been ill.

Bond is correct.  John Brennan is the Little Ferry NJ man who died from the virus.  John was very sick for a long time.  I was surprised he was even alive when I read about is death.  He had about 100 things wrong with him and had been in declining health for years.  But yes the cause of death was the virus.  My question is this.  If the virus is the cause, why are they drawing for next week?  If a paddock worker is sick with the virus, why would they ever chance racing?  This means that hundreds of horsemen have been exposed to the virus.

Yes, I said that, but you still have not answered the question.   why are they going on with business as usual, or at least they are pretending to be.

Have to say there's alot of bullshit on this sight but also firsthand breaking news.  The casino would be the first thing I would shut down.  Given the average age of slots payers and the number of oxygen tanks and wheelchairs I see in there, along with the closed environment and dirty machines, they would be prime breeding grounds for the virus.

Relax, unless you have a suppressed immune system.  This coronavirus thing is a media driven propaganda machine. It mortality rate is less than the flu. And its a 96% match to Sars, how many died from it?
