Maybe I'm crazy, but i have zero fear of this. I have a totally different opinion . My education is a B.S. in bio chemistry . So im not ignorant of the facts. Im simply not buying the media hype. Who knows, maybe I'll catch it and die tomorrow. But I'll bet against that.Posted On: Aug 10th 2020, 7:45 PM #395652
I'm guessing you don't know anyone who has died or has had a hard time with this virus. Be thankful for that, and have some empathy for those that aren't as lucky

Maybe not weak. But definitely more manipulated. As for union busting, if an employee is too afraid to do their job, stay home . But without pay. Good thing grocery clerks aren't afraid or we would all starve.Posted On: Aug 10th 2020, 7:50 PM #395653
It is not about being afraid. For many, it's about having to work.
Like many Americans, they are one missed paycheck away from falling behind.
So even if elderly with a possible pre-existing condition a Publix clerk has to take that risk or they might not make rent or utilities.
This is why low-income citizens have been hit the hardest with death rates.
As for college football; the conferences do not want to go down the road of starting to give players employee rights.
Like having to negotiate a bubble scenario or health care coverage if any long term issues happen to do to a player contracting it.

Shane - I get your point however the death rates has more to do with population density than income level. Granted income level is a variable of population density but not a deciding factor. NYC had a death rate of 208 per 100,000 people. Obviously the highest death rate due to the nursing home fiasco.
What's the NCAA guidelines for student athletes when it comes to healthcare and insurance policies? Can the universities provide free of cost?
