[QUOTE="KillerFrog InD KitchenSink, post: 2888960, member: 4967"] Yeah I pretty much agree- severe illnesses are going to be rare in athletes at their age and health level. But even mild illnesses can have a pretty big impact on performance and recovery time. In the MLB, there are a lot of "test positive only cases" that are no big deal, but the "mildly" affected players can be out for a long time- way longer than a typical flu or cold. [URL='https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/2020/07/07/phillies-scott-kingery-coronavirus-mlb-2020/5393504002/']Check out Scott Kingery's accoun[/URL]t. So while not ICU severe, from a sports perspective a "mild illness" can be pretty impactful to on the field performance and availability. I never remember any cold or flu illnesses knocking guys out like this. [/QUOTE]
