In 1992, John Brzustowski proved in his graduate thesis that it was mathematically impossible to play an infinite game of Tetris as the game is statistically doomed to end

Physical distancing may extend to 2022, COVID-19 study finds

“Until vaccines and effective treatments are available for COVID-19, the authors called for increasing critical care capacity, development of other interventions, viral and serologic testing to understand the durability of immunity, and widespread epidemiologic surveillance.”

New Math Proves That a Special Kind of Space-Time Is Unstable

“In 1986, a mathematician proved that de Sitter space-time is stable. A pair of mathematicians did the same for Minkowski space-time in 1993. The AdS problem has taken longer. The general consensus was that AdS, unlike the other two configurations, is unstable, which meant that mathematicians would have to take an entirely new approach.”
