[QUOTE="Efrem Winters fan, post: 1538656, member: 746176"] My younger brother is a doctor and we talk about COVID-19 frequently. My Mother passed away ten days ago at age 90 fom COVID-19. I think we are already at the point where the cure is worse than the disease. If you are elderly or have underlying health issues (asthma, chronic bronchitis, diabetes,heart didsease, hypertension, etc), you are at elevated risk from complications related to CV-19 and it makes sense to take great care to protect these people from potential exposure. My mother was in assisted living and got the virus from another resident who tested positive in the hospital a few days earlier. Eleven residents and 10 caregivers were infected last I heard. College students on the whole are at low risk to develop serious complications including death if they become infected. Many will have minimal or no symptoms. I don't know how we will will proceed from here- my guess is we may miss a few games but I expect the bulk of the season to be played. Although I understand people's worries I know a lot of people are really struggling and desperate. I have been lucky so far as I have key role in a large company but anything can happen if things continue on their current course. [/QUOTE]
