The precautions are more to limit the spread, not as much to protect the individual athletes. However they still don't know how or why it affects some differently than others. My wife's primary care doctor, who is also in our Sunday school class, told her he has had over 70 of his regular patients hospitalized to date because of COVID-19 complications and the worst case of all was an otherwise perfectly healthy 27 year old.

The 27 year old wasn't a pro athlete. No pro athletes have died from it. How are they going to spread it with no exposure to the fans or stadium employees other than refs.

All this for a virus that the WHO already came out and admitted they overestimated in almost every way. With a bogus death count that is artificially inflated. What a ****in joke.

No. You are misunderstanding. The league's concern is the spread from team personnel to others that the players might come into contact with OUTSIDE of the stadium. If one player, or other team related person, is carrying the virus it can be spread to other players, or team personnel, that could then take it home to family or anyone else they contact. What they are talking about is the players agreeing that until the season is over they have to stay in full lockdown mode with only their immediate family and team personnel.

If the refs can get it... maybe we're on to something...

Two studies have shown now a significant correlation to blood type (antigens)...
