I think if the kids have to go back to the school I don't want to hear about this! Kids are least susceptible to this. Social distancing, masks, and proper hygiene protocols are achievable in a school setting. My son starts college this year and I had wished that he had at least some semblance of normalcy...

Man, I feel for you. Being a freshman on many college campuses is going to so much suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albany,n.y. Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 This should get interesting when there aren't enough tests for all the civilians & the players are getting tested every day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone reacts differently to nasopharyngeal swabs. I’ve seen girls in their 20s take it without even flinching and grown men lose their *****. I’ve had it done. It’s not fun and I wouldn’t want it done to me everyday, but these guys are used to being clobbered on a weekly basis. I’m sure Brady would cry though.

A lab is being contracted to do hundreds or even thousands of test per day, and turning around results in 24 hours, but somehow this is not going to hurt general public testing...where in some cases it takes 4-5 days or more to get a result, not to mention those who live in areas where you can't even be swabbed the same day you request. It's more like the NFL is throwing much more money per test at this company, than insurance is paying a lab facility for normal schucks like us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a few thousand extra tests per day (out of 800,000) negatively impacts national testing, then national testing is far worse off than we knew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrbojanglezs Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I bet the players change their tune on this daily testing real quick once they get a few of those nasal swab tests they are awful 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I think if the NFL gets anywhere near 5% in the first two weeks they are in for a world of hurt. No amount of testing will slow that rate down and it is probably too late. Incubation is somewhere between 5 and 14 days, and the NFL opens with zero cases and on the 14th day they have 4.5% positive cases (130 positive cases or 4 per team), it is probably already working through the a ton more. That would be a total failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
