[QUOTE="Techster, post: 718671, member: 360"] Do you not see the disconnect between what you said and what we're asking of SAs? Your response with the precautions you're taking at work to protect your employees and co-workers is directly opposed to what we're asking of SAs. You can't clean and disenfect after every play, you can't tell players they are not allowed to come within 3 feet another person without fundamentally changing sports itself, you can't split shifts for players and games, SAs can't practice and play games at home, SAs can't wear face mask during competition without it affecting their performance. You and your company are doing the correct thing in taking every precaution for the safety of those that work there, unfortunately, that fundamentally impossible to do in sports like football and basketball without changing it. I don't know what hospitals you're speaking with, but I have friends that are high level adminstrators and doctors at Emory, and friends that work at the CDC in Atlanta. The information that has been relayed to a group of us is that numbers are far higher than is being reported, and decisions that are being made is from data that is either incomplete, or flat out wrong (you don't have to search too hard to find the data manipulation going on with GA and FL). You're correct, it's political...and unfortunately how good or bad that is depends on your POV. As numbers coming out of FL in terms of ICU and deaths, I'd take it with a grain of salt. The governor down there, let's just say, would rather play hide and seek with data than be the responsible human being we expect of our elected officials: [URL]https://www.miamiherald.com/opinion/editorials/article242557271.html[/URL] I get it. We all want normalcy. Unfortunately, we're not dealing with a "normal" issue. As I said before, I fully expect sports to move forward because human stupidity and greed knows no bounds. All I know is the law of unintended consequences will rear its ugly head...always does. There will be lawyers...and LOTS of them. Anyhow, it's a beautiful weekend. I'm going to go out and enjoy it...and I hope you do as well. [/QUOTE]
