Everyone wears masks. Players play with them and schools give you team specific mask to go to the game in.

Welp your first post that shows lack of knowledge and could weaken all other opinions you have had. Hope you can come back from this!

Sorry, but this is getting ridiculous. The people who have died have all been elderly with underlying health issues. COVID-19 is less contagious than the flu.
Better safe than sorry, but this is a lot of hype...
...for the record, if I die from it, all of you can cite this post as an example of someone who didn't take it seriously enough.

I was going to post this exact thought but knew I’d get backlash. Some backlash I don’t mind but I didn’t want this backlash. Lol

I agree with you but I’m also a bit of a risk taker.

Also agree the media has a lot to gain from scaring people with this info.

It’s flu season, and flu season sucks. This is a slightly worse flu season???

Well mask, as in surgical mask, actually can help stop airborne particles. A reason it can help prevent the flu. They’d suck to play in, but you’d have a souvenir IU surgical mask.

I would be willing to bet you don’t know much on this subject Joe. Hate to tell you surgical masks aren’t exactly air tight.

They aren’t. That’s why I said they HELP PREVENT. A reason doctors ask you to wear them. Why millions in China wear them because of all the pollution. Because it helps stop airborne particles. I’m guessing you don’t know much? Masks along with washing and sanitizing your hands and just not traveling all help.

N95 for players and staff. Fans permitted if they have them.

 

Jk.

 

But seriously, it is a shade overblown. And don’t tell me the fatality rate is 10x compared to seasonal influenza when we’ve had a handful of cases here. That N is still way too small. Standard precautions still rule all, but until the herd has enough sense to use them faithfully, the media has something to run with.

 

Depending on how it spreads, I fear implications on March Madness are looming.

Did you just claim that you can only gauge the fatality based on American cases?
