I never said a damn thing about a bubble, not going out. I’m taking about common sense if you people want to see youth sports this year! You can keep being a imaginary American freedom fighter. Just so you know, I am a republican. I don’t think covid is much different than sars or the swine flu but guess what ? I’m not a doctor or a health expert, I’m just a father that knows hockey pretty well who happened to make a lot of connections, friends and people I consider extended family though out the journey. go back to being a freedom fighter, I want to see hockey this year, youth and pro. I don’t give a crap about your freedoms or politics. The virus is real and spreads easy, That is fact. Two Pittsburgh pirates just tested positive. Will they die ? Probably not, they will probably have flu like symptoms for a few days but every once in awhile for some unknown reasons, this virus does kill healthy people. Look at the 41 year old actor who died today. 3 months in the hospital from covid, completely healthy, no underlining issues. His wife can’t even explain it. Ask dr wecht to explain that, maybe he will give you some jfk info while he’s at it.

Is this renowned pathologist in the majority? Or the minute minority, of health professionals, who believe in masks? Im not a health professional, and I can confidently say that if Cyril Wecht is going around saying “masks are absurd” then he is a clown who should never work in healthcare again. Here’s a simple explantation for you. When your body “sneezes”... it can expel germ droplets a lot further than 6 feet. By wearing a mask, you are eliminating the amount of droplets that are expelled, and you’re else eliminating the distance in which they are expelled. That is common sense. It also stops the mouth breathers from expelling the virus all over others.

I wouldn't trust that unless it came from the king or queens account

From the email I got just now, Ice Castle is open at least on Tuesday.

This whole thing were we are trying to correlate youth sports and school is baffling. ”Youth sports” mostly involves roughly 35-40 kids at a time during a game, and 15-20 during practice a few times a week for and hour and half. Schools consist of 300 to 1k+ kids... 5 times a week for 6+ hours. The “risk” with youth sports barely registers when you take into consideration that some of these districts are going to pack all of those kids into a school - and all it will take is one sneeze to get into the ventilation system. People are so out to lunch on the whole school thing, but like everything else in this country - we’re just going to have to try it (knowing it won’t work) then all fall flat on our faces. Kids will be back at home by mid-September. Saw a few districts taking “parent surveys” on whether or not to reopen. Talk about letting the inmates run the asylum. Pandering and spineless. I know people have to work, but everyone knows the reality of this, and while it’s a harsh, difficult, hard to swallow reality. It is indeed, REALITY. We cannot gather in groups of more than 25, but a month from now, schools can be packed? I say close school, knowing it won’t work, and let the kids who play sports have some semblance of normalcy. Hell, maybe it will encourage others who typically wouldn’t play to get out and moving. The schools will shut the schools down, not a youth soccer league.
