The covid-19 virus has not killed or sent a healthy individual to a hospital yet. Rising case numbers do not portend doom and gloom.

Table 4 shows the types of health conditions and contributing causes mentioned in conjunction with deaths involving coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). For 7% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned.

What age bracket?

 

You realize the flu and diarrhea kill healthy people each year as well? Noooooo, I'm not saying Covid is on par with these two. Just that you are looking damn hard for stats to justify your fears.

 

Again, if the curve has been flattened, hospitals are not overrun... WHEN will it be OK for some of you guys to get back to as close to normal as possible? You want perpetual lockdown until the virus goes away or the magical cure/vaccine has been found?

Then you should go work in a COVID-19 ward.  

 

Plenty of healthy people have died to virus.

This would be great if true, but even with the expanded ICU units - Texas hospitalizations are way up and % of ICU space is way down.  Same with Florida, Arizona, Carolinas.

 

The idea was to flatten the curve and then maintain some semblance of control to prevent exactly what is happening in many of these states.

 

There is still difficulty getting proper PPE and testing supplies because US leadership decided not to centralize, but force states to compete.  
 

If they had actually shutdown and enforced social distancing in many of these places - we would see results closer to what Germany and South Korea are seeing - more isolated breakouts,  but we do not enforce simple things like mask wearing and basic social distancing and therefore many states are worse off now that 2 months ago.

LIAR

 

I personally know two healthy people, both under 60 years of age, who were hospitalized. Both are now OK, it seems. Some research suggest their lungs may be scared and they may never recover 100% of their functions.

There was a reported case from Italy where 13 healthy young men on ski trip were all infected. 

https://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2020/05/08/coronavirus-covid19-italy-ski-trip-survivor/

Quote

Garfield contracted COVID-19 during the annual ski trip back in February before many people even knew about coronavirus.

All thirteen members of his group were infected with the virus. When Garfield got home, he checked himself into the hospital.

His doctors said he although he was incredibly healthy, the virus still hit him hard with nearly every vital organ in his body shutting down.

It's a tribute to our great country that others feel it is their duty to take care of people who think the way you do all the same....

 

Perhaps 100 years ago, vaccines would have been considered "magic".  Well done.

If you had read the thread instead of just reacting irrationally, you'd realize I'm not really worried about the athletes. Go educate yourself on how the virus spreads.

Maybe if, in our sweetest voice, we tell their lungs everything will be ok, they won’t be scared anymore?

It's crazy the players have decided to go to the states where cases are exploding instead of places like Montana or Wyoming where there are very few cases because there are hardly any people and they could be training in isolation...
