I think all bets are off after massive individuals show up for protest over past wk, virus dooming data loss appeals, reduced infectivities and deaths stats (maybe hovering around 0.5_0.9% instead of predicted 4- 9%) in multiple states, 2 mills vaccines maybe available soon, good potential drugs treatments maybe available in falls.

NBA seasons and baseball seasons are heading toward reopenings also
I am glad things maybe returning to normalcy


Maybe time to head to games get hotdogs and a cold beer


10 yrs from now we probably won't remember corona after all

  • Hi johnN,

    Fine. You go. Good luck.

  • No thanks when you see fans in close proximity (less than 1') and yelling - all that aerosols potentially contain coronavirus! Great way to get infected. Think about this environment comparing to that of churches. South Korea banned all religiously gatherings early in January 2020 and gotten their situation stabilized.

    Professional sports need to find creative solutions to have live fans while sharing the tight environment. Health liability is something the stadium owners have to face.
  • I can imagine the sign-off, "hold harmless" agreement that will have to be signed to attend a 107,000 fan football game at U of Mich. HA........no thank you.
    Early football training camp at Alabama and Arkansas already have positive Covid tests. Gonna be interesting. One Michigan university has already canceled other sports programs. NOT because of Covid, but what will be low cash flow (TV monies) from what a football program brings to a university, which supports many other sport programs.
  • I 'believe' the NFL plans on playing. I usually attend one game, but this year will stay away from the bus ride & stadium !
    Stay Safe, Derf

    Will try to get coronavirus vaccine before attending
  • @johnN
    Will try to get coronavirus vaccine before attending
    And which season year are you planning to attend ???
  • Hi sir catch22...you are right maybe too soon..will wait for mass herd immunity or develoment/availability vaccines before going, probably 2022...

    Near where we live all restaurants and large local facilities are openned now, so many people are dinning. Shopping centers Ross and tj max also opened. People go there and forgot coronavirus ever happened, only about 20% wears mask. Maybe too big and coronavirus incidents not so bad compared to other large metropolis areas like NJ or NYC
  • @johnN: Hopefully they 're running at 25% capacity !
    Stay Safe, Derf

    Smoking not wearing masks constant cursing yelling sharing drinks cards monies...what could go wrong
  • Those infected and recovered patients often incur permanent health damages including lungs, blood chemistry, and central nervous system, whereas there is none of the above damages from that of seasonal flu. Chris Como's lung x-ray should tell you something; not sure if he will recover fully. Medical communities are still trying to fully understand the situation. That is something we all need to avoid if all possible before an effective vaccine is available which typically takes over a over decade. There is hope that large resource is directed to make this possible.
