I wish I didn’t agree, but it’s getting there...

As long as the titles are easily and consistently searchable - say, always including “Coronavirus Live”, I’m fine with any frequency that makes sense to you all who can be here more.

I like the several days threads. People post on the old thread and the info isn’t read on the new thread.
