CCJ reports a case.
The Mississippi State Department of Health reported 30 new cases of the Coronavirus yesterday. The total number of cases for Mississippi is 80. There has only been one death so far although more are expected.
The Country Club of Jackson sent this email to its members last weekend.
I would like to address the rumor mill, and set many of your minds at ease. Sunday afternoon I too heard the rumor that a member with a positive test for COVID-9 had come out to the Club and played golf, attended the Saturday
night wedding reception, etc. I called the member in question and asked first hand what the situation was, and he reported:
1. He had no symptoms and thus played golf FRIDAY; he did NOT enter any buildings, didn't even pull the flag pins
2. He was diagnosed SATURDAY, and has been home quarantined ever since
3. He did NOT attend the reception, did NOT play golf on Saturday, enter the 19th Hole, etc.
The member in question, xxxxx xxxxxx , has given me permission to use his name as the rumors are both widespread and false. To be clear, upon learning he was positive for COVID-19 on SATURDAY, he has been in home quarantine.
I hope this helps put many of your minds at ease.
As this COVID-19 scenario runs it's course, your CCJ will continue to adapt accordingly. Please check for email updates regarding changes to normal operating procedures as they happen As I previously stated, the situation is fluid; however, we will do everything possible to remain your place to
come and relax, particularly during these stressful times.

These are the last few of the good days we have left. The world may never be as good again. The virus is airborne.
U may be correct.
Also, if it’s your time to die...it’s just...your time to die.
People get ready...there’s a train a coming.
Are y’all ready to meet ur maker??
I thought it took a couple of days to get a positive test result. You also need a doctor to prescribe the test. He had to be symptomatic before Friday if he was tested and got the result on Saturday.
So this moron was symptomatic, then went to the doctor and got a Covid-19 test, and then decided to go out and play a round of golf while waiting on the results? I hope he has a good attorney.
How do you explain the limited number of cases in Japan, Russia, Mexico, etc. are they not testing, not reporting?

All three countries arent panic prone chicken littles.
A friend's daughter got her test back today. Positive. Lives in Jackson. Was at a party at a local bar last weekend. The numbers will soar over the next week in the USA but that doesn't mean the recent measures are not working. It means we were about a week to ten days too late implementing serious measures. You'll see the new cases slow down in about 10 more days, meanwhile observe the hysteria.
Maybe the legislature could require Phil Bryant to donate all of his unused millions of campaign funds toward helping patients.
My kid and I are on quarantine. She’s had fever and cough for 4 days. We live in north MS but she had been visiting in Jackson last weekend. Waiting on test results. I can tell you that she has been miserable. Kids might recover, but only an extremely insensitive person would put their kid at high risk of contracting it.
This is bad and following Italy's model. 50% increase every day or two. So, 50 has become 80, then 120, 180, 270, etc. Logarithmic scales are hard to grasp and get very big quickly. Find the chart about Italy's rate of infection.
I don't have hope we'll do better.
Where are all the them FEMA Katrina Campers. Put up a FEMA Camp and lock them in until they are all well.
I quit the CCJ yesterday. Resigned. It make me sick that these arrogant, pompous, privileged asses are actually sending out emails to the members stating new guidelines for golf cart usage, AS SO MANY PEOPLE ARE PLAYING GOLF.....4 somes, 5 somes. 200+ golfers all day long, trading carts, having drinks, on and on. I mean can the CCJ not get with the program? Is the membership that self absorbed, selfish and narcissistic? WHY have they NOT shut the club down, like restaurants and organizations all over the country?
Complete nothing burger. We've been out and about town all day. Inconvenienced by this hoax, but otherwise business as usual. Feel bad for all of the poors that are now out of work. It is unfortunate that your ancestors failed to build generational wealth.
@3:34
You must be trolling because 15+ year old rotten used campers are nothing but a coffin today.
Italy IS NOT an example to use. Italy is a worst-case example and there are more differences than similarities when attempting to compare
Unfortunately in a week or so some of you smart asses will now be able to comment.You will be too sick, if your lucky enough to still be with us.
@3:47 PM - those legislators have to spend their per diem someplace, so it might as well be on drinks at the CCJ.
5:31. Keep up. The legislature has gone home. Duh.
Total lie.
There is no way he was fine on Fri and played golf.
Then woke up Sat w symptoms, got tested and got results back all on Sat.
He got tested Thur and results came back Sat.
Everyone knows they don’t test unless you show symptoms. So he had symptoms on Thur. Then played golf on Fri. Then got the bad news on Sat.
I hope he is never my doctor!

Agreed. I dabbled with the first week of MS numbers on Wednesday (34 cases)
Next five days predicted 51 (50), 77 (80), 115, 172, 258…
The problem with the numbers as they are being reported is they represent roughly 20ish% (symptomatic) of cases one week ago. Move that curve a week to the left and adjust for the asymptomatic if you want a more accurate number.
@3:47 pm, the CCJ is not serving food or drink inside. Those facilities are closed. Members can play outside sports. For golf several restrictions in place. No need to go inside to register. What is arrogant about all of this? Not a thing. Glad you quit.
They are serving outside, if I'm not mistaken.
I don't have a problem with playing golf. Small groups of people, fairly isolated activity outdoors. Also keeps domestic violence down on both sides since we are now out of hunting season.
@3:01 MS rates are about 50%.
Quick math lesson: with 140 cases, at 50% daily increase, it takes 25 days to infect entire state. Then only 10 more to infect 300 Million people in the USA. And that's starting with 140 in Mississippi ONLY.
