And Schneed, you self-admittedly work in an environment where you are daily deluged with the worst of the virus, and that work is greatly appreciated. It clearly has given you a very jaded eye toward the COVID pandemic, and that is understandable. But it's not everyone's experience, and in fact in a bell curve environment you would be at the extreme tail.

Sports players would clearly fall in the other extreme of that tail. They are extremely fit, mostly not in the high or even moderate risk category for having extreme COVID symptoms, and throughout their life they have likely been in peak physical health.

Oh come on C Red - it is a simple numbers game. If we are seeing progress at 54 % than obviously 100 % would be complete and total victory against the virus. Unless, again, the virus mutates into something stronger because we are not getting vaccinated fast enough.

As far as me putting the full quote- I included the entire article.
