Too be fair, the article you linked to is stating that there are also studies estimating that the true death rate is nowhere near 6.7.  I don't think many people are comparing it to the flu at this point, but we need to start assuming some risk since that's part of life.

Of course not.  Fortunately for us, the data is out there to analyze ourselves and I sense people get it at this point.  The answer was never a one size fits all approach.  Though it wasn't popular to say a couple months ago it was true then as well.  Luckily states can compete with each other and learn from the different approaches.  People will put (or pull) their money where their mouth is.

Things change.  A couple of months ago no one was worried about this syndrome that appears to be corona related with young kids.

1%-2% mortality rate... so if it rips through the locker room, only 1-2 players and/or staff will die.

I would worry much more about CTE, unknown heart condition and paralysis IMO, but definitely a risk every time we leave the house.

Isn't it amazing how things change in the things we know nothing about? And how literal we take almost any comment on them.

The writers of this article did not ask the question, what type of population was more suseptable to this disease?  

 

Do you mean susceptible to contract the disease or susceptible to die from the disease? The answers differ, I believe ....

Both because that is critical information that should have been included.

If the players have a choice they will all be out there practicing...most are under the delusion that they will play in the NFL someday so that don’t want to jeopardize that.

Our community pool opened up on Monday.  Got in yesterday and today.  Wow, amazing how much you lose. Been walking 5 miles a day (not all at once) but lasted 12 and 15 minutes in the pool.

Our community pool opened last weekend but, I'm more hesitant getting into water that old folks have peed in than catching the bug...

Actually saw a bit on TV news a week ago that told you not to go in pools. Not because of the virus but because of other things that could make you sick and weaken you so that IF you got the virus.......   F that. I missed my swimming. Got back up to 1/2 hour yesterday and today.
