Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

As my wife has a couple of auto-immune disorders and is also allergic to many of the best meds, the possibility of her death is my biggest worry.  So, no, I don't spend much time thinking about the non-lethal aspects.  They do rate consideration, though, IMO.

At some point you play like everybody else or you wallow in a PR headache.

We heard about a ventilator shortage at obsessive repetition until that worry disappeared in the night.

We’ve hear Communications majors who can’t pass a biology class preach “science” to no end.

For better or worse: Second Wave, Super Spreaders, Mask mandates, Social distancing.

At some point it’s only a matter of hearing what you want to hear. To that end everybody get ready to be confronted by talk of the “non-lethals.”

I'm not worried about the spread on campus as much as what that spread means when those kids go home

I’m worried somewhat but we are living our lives. Daughter has been playing travel softball since June. We’ve let the kids go to birthday parties and have sleepovers.

You make decisions, be as careful as you can, and hope for the best.

It's not some political talking point, though.  It's about a novel virus who's long-term effects we know BUBCUS about.  I'm not sure shrugging and figuring c'est la vie is the best plan when so much is unknown.

I'm worried it's going to drag a CFB message board I enjoy reading into places I don't care for. Also that it will create extraneous threads.

The #1 side effect of COVID 19

I read somewhere, I forget where, that the heart problems once associated with COVID are "not real".  I don't know if that is true at all though.

I do know a lot of initial reports turn out later to have been wrong, or exaggerated. 

I don't think it's that it isn't real - the myocarditis is a real condition that is caused by other viruses as well as COVID.  The flu can cause long term issues for people - when I was a kid I had a rather nasty flu and had some breathing issues for months afterwards.  In any event, long term issues are associated with serious illness, so it's unlikely that people with no or mild symptoms would have long term effects.  Since college kids and younger are unlikely to have serious COVID symptoms, it would seem unlikely they would have serious longterm effects from COVID as well.  At least that's my logic and I'm sticking to it.
