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

I mean, yes, true, though it does bring up an ethical conundrum - how much right does one group of people (those with a high risk of dying) to restrict another group (those with very low to zero risk).  You can make a pretty good argument that young people are bearing the most of the weight of the restriction while seeing the least benefit.

Young people in general aren't bearing most of the weight.  Small business owners and operators--and the employees they are forced to lay off--would be doing that, I think.  Compared to that, young people are being inconvenienced.

One could argue that young people who perhaps are bearing the biggest burden--top athletes who have pro careers ahead of them that they would like to continue to pursue--are indirectly asking that other people also take risks by coming out to see them "play."

IMO, college-age young people who are continuing to party as if it's 2019 don't have a claim on some moral right to spread the virus because they are bearing the biggest burdens of the restrictions.

.05 is too high.  It may be on target for that age group with comorbidities (which is something to look at, for this group sickle cell, not sure if asthma is considered a comorbidity or not).  But without them we are looking at something a lot lower, between .0003 and .00004.  So few young people from that group have died as to make it difficult to calculate. 

Please don't use realistic numbers when it might cause people to realize the fear is overblown. 

Was wondering how many cases they've had at NCSU to prompt this response, and found this informative tracker for all universities in the state of North Carolina.

Hey Afro Man,

Your logic makes no sense... your assuming none of those 9100 athletes will catch covid and die if they don't play football.  Problem is, they  will have a much greater chance of catching covid going back to the dorms or to their home towns socializing with their friends than they would in a controlled FB enviornment!  Playing FB has nothing to do with the death rate.

I'm guess you lack data for this claim.

So the SEC schools are sharing out their plans for spectators.......this is fucking unreal.  They're going to have about 20,000 attending games on average.  

It's like we're TRYING to spread this thing around.  

Okay, so you're unswayed by the possibility of a few players dying.  And no one seems to give a damn about old, fat coaches dying, how about the fans?

Does anyone pause for the INEVITABILITY of fans excitedly going to see their team play a football game and dying because of it?

darwinism

these fans that would rush to the stadium with a deadly virus on the loose are the same folks that are putting themselves in danger the other 6 days of the week doing other risky unhealthy things.

you know, like going to church

Nobody is stopping you from hiding under your bed in the fetal position.

We will let you know when it is safe to come out. Promise.
