[QUOTE="BlueLeader, post: 1538669, member: 694833"] That may actually be a case AGAINST your push to proceed. At least if everyone was symptomatic, we could track the spiking of contractions. However if you have a 40,000 kid campus of urban style living, tight classrooms, bars and all the interactions that come with college - it is the absolutely best spot for disease transmission. All it takes is 1% of those to get infected and bring it home to family members that you already know are at risk. That's also ignoring the risk to all of our professors and faculty staff on campus. A crowded basketball stadium is amplifying the classroom and bar sample size above. Its basically insuring the virus finds new hosts to survive in. I personally think we're pretty much definite on no fans or 1/3rd of seats allowed at football games at best. I don't see them making a decision on basketball until even October when they can assess a potential 2nd wave. [/QUOTE]
