[QUOTE="LVH, post: 2859075, member: 71239"] There are so many things on a football field that can kill people. Heat stroke, CTE suicides, being 2 of the main ones. Yet people still play football. Risk is a part of life... we take risks when we get in our cars, when we get on airplanes. We have a greater chance of being killed driving on I-35 or Loop 820 than we do dying from Coronavirus, yet we still do it. I think part of the problem is that the media treats new CASES, not DEATHS, but CASES as OMG ARMAGEDDON WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE. New cases is not a bad thing, especially infections in population segments that are low risk like young healthy people. I think its a good thing for herd immunity purposes. But as long as the media freaks out and panics over every new case, we are never going to get through this. The narrative over cases needs to flip for us to have a chance. [/QUOTE]
