They're all doing it, the decision was made in the middle of games occurring which is why you see fans
Tell me how canceling a few games but still letting people congregate in airports, in restaurants, shopping malls, shoulder to shoulder on streets in busy cities all over the country, makes sense.
How does it do that exactly? The people not going to those games are going to quarantine themselves??
Shows how much of a genius you truly are
I get it. But that means you assume something those people not going to the games are going to quarantine themselves......which is patently untrue.
Makes no sense. Those people are still going to go and have contact with other humans. Doesn’t matter if it’s in a group of 5 or 5,000. I’m not gonna catch the virus sitting across the stadium from you. I’m gonna catch sitting near you or bumping into you. That can happen anywhere.
Do you not see the difference between them having contact with 5 or 5000 people? And the number of possible they could infect if they're carrying the virus
What? You apparently don't understand at all
how trueWhen you go to a sporting event, you don’t “have contact” w 5,000 people. You’re in the same place. Just like you are when you walk down 5th Avenue or walk through an airport. Tell me how it’s different.
Others have tried and given up, now I give up. I can’t understand what your motivations might be for ignoring what is glaringly obvious and intuitive. For your sake and others I encourage you to read more information from qualified professionals. You're choosing to fly in the face of what everyone plainly sees. You’re not completely alone, however, and it’s putting others at risk.
I’m actually being more conservative than all of you, that’s what you’re not getting. Cancel everything and quarantine everybody if you don’t want this spreading. Canceling a few sporting events is like spitting in the ocean. It’s a reaction to public hue and cry. But you can just as easily get the virus from other forms of contact with other people in other places. This does nothing but make for good headlines. The 20k people who don’t go to the games are all going to have contact with multiple other people during their normal walk of life. There is no proof that not going to that game will somehow magically slow the spread of the virus. Anyone that has it that would have gone to the game will give it to someone else they come into contact with during the time they otherwise would have been at the game.
I’m obviously being extreme, but you get my point and you just helped me make it. What if everyone that was going to go to the game instead decides to go to the mall. Is that somehow a better outcome?
At some point, that person is going to get thirsty or hungry. They're going to pull money out of their pocket or a credit card out and give it to a cashier in exchange for food or beverage. That cashier is then going to go on and handle all sorts of food items that will be given to hundreds of other people through the course of the day/weekend. All those people are not going to go get food, go back to their seats and wash their hands or disinfect the containers their food comes in.
Not true. I personally don’t believe it’s the risk that most others do. But if the rest of the world does, than do what must be done to stop it. This is as half-assed as anything that’s been done yet. I’m fine w being quarantined as long as everyone else is.....honestly. But this is just an attempt at headlines. Do what needs to be done or don’t. But don’t do something that will barely register and act like you’re saving the world. You’re not.
