I'm quite stunned that the idea of holding it behind closed doors doesn't even seem to have been considered.

All those basketball fans weeping all over Twitter have no idea how good they have it.
That's a nonsense, how can the skaters prepare for the new season and also keep their old programs going?
Yes, they posted a new improved policy today, just in time for this. Check their website! (Sorry, cant link at the moment,)Anyone know yet if Air Canada is expanding their refund program to tickets purchased before March??
Sorry to be selfish but does anyone have an idea of what the path to ticket refunds might look like? I’m assuming the event organizers will reach out individually but given the $hit-$how that the purchase and delivery process was I’m not sure I should be holding my breath.
Then where would the points be added, to last season's ISU ranking point or the new season's?
Do you know that it wasn't considered?I'm quite stunned that the idea of holding it behind closed doors doesn't even seem to have been considered.
Toilet paper... don't knock it... sometimes it is more valuable than hard currency and becomes a trading unit...People are stockpiling bath tissue like they expect to not leave their house for weeks.
I think the situation is just much worse, than you people in North America have realized, because you're about 1 or 2 weeks behind Europe with the pandemic situation, because it's starting to feel REALLY bad here now and 1 or 2 weeks ago everything still seemed pretty normal here too.
They probably did consider it but not worth the risk.I'm quite stunned that the idea of holding it behind closed doors doesn't even seem to have been considered.
I'm 59 years old and the paranoia and hysteria going in this country is mind boggling right now. People really don't have any common sense anymore do they? With all of the cancellations going on from the pros to high school you would think that the bubonic plague from the 14th century had made a comeback. People are stockpiling bath tissue like they expect to not leave their house for weeks. I'm all for containing this virus but people need to stop freaking out.
As a physician, I have been following this very closely, and I can assure you this is neither paranoia or hysteria. This disease is quite contagious and deadlier than flu, and there's no vaccine for it, not will there be one for quite a while simply because testing must be done. The World Health Organization has officially declared it a pandemic, and that is VERY serious. I agree that stockpiling TP and bottled water is a bit silly, but it's highly recommended that people be prepared to have 2 weeks worth of food, provisions, medications, etc. in case they are put in a quarantine/isolation situation and can't leave their house. And you will get short notice if that happens. Real "common sense" is listening to what WHO, the CDC, and the experts tell you to do. I realize this is disappointing for fans and especially the skaters, but safety take precedence over competition. I have a feeling that the NCAA may have to fall in line here, too, March Madness be damned.
I think the problem is that silly media organisations have a habit of dumb sensationalist reporting and they've eroded trust in what they are saying. It's like the boy who cried wolf.
