Maybe they could build longer urinal troughs? Assign everyone catheters? Reuse your Pepsi bottle?
No major spread occurred from outdoor protests. Not a single city has reported a rise from them. Not even from Trump's Tulsa rallies, which were going to infect the entire group. Not a peep anywhere about people getting the virus from those events.
And we want to act like going to a football game will result in an explosion of new cases?
Much of Europe and WHO only recommends 1 meter distance (
Article). and their cases are going down. Maybe we are standing too far apart and that is the problem.
And what if everyone wore masks? The way they are being presented that should prevent any possibility of transmission.
I am not intending to be combative here, it just seems so obvious to me that attending a football game is an even less likely way to transmit than outdoor protests. And those didn't show any evidence of transmitting. Especially if you take precautions, the stadium is maybe half full, and you don't kiss strangers. But asserting that the winds in the stadium may spread the virus is misinformation. Or how long this virus can survive outside of a person on a fall day in the sun? (
Article - hint: it dies outside in the sun in minutes)
And, again, do you know what a petri dish is? You are the second person to say they are alike so I will be annoying and dispute this because that idea is obviously catching on.

This is a petri dish. I was shocked when I found one online, because you are the second person to say they are like Memorial Stadium. I couldn't believe that they are in fact, tiny. And they have lids that must be put on, or they don't work since the stuff inside dries up, killing it all. And they have a nutrient-rich substrate that allows bacteria (not viruses) to grow on them. Yep, that is right. Viruses can't grow in Petri dishes. So if Memorial is in fact like a petri dish, then we are good to go!

This is Memorial Stadium. If you notice, there is no lid. and it is huge. No nutrient rich material, known as agar, which can't grow viruses anyway, since a virus is not able to survive outside a host. Oh, and based on a few measurements, well over 25K could be inside the stands and still have over 6 feet in between them, which is double what the WHO recommends for social distancing.
We can't act like going to Memorial Stadium cannot be done safely. It can. This why they are hopeful for games in the fall. It can be done safely.
The misinformation just gets to me, sometimes! I talk to so many people who will literally not go on a walk around a lake by them self with out fear of getting the virus and I just want to bring some reason to the whole conversation. Frost talked about having football in the fall because they are (hopefully) operating with an understanding of some of these things and not trying to make fear-based decisions!
I feel like a need a thread ban or something so I can stop responding to all of this!
