Does anyone know the difference between quarantine and self isolation? Why would a player self isolate if they weren’t contact traced or positive tested.

 

Edit: I’m a dumbass that can’t read

Well that didn’t take long from the time they cancelled practice. Predictable though.

 

With a 10 or 14 days absence we are going to have a lot of rust come through 3rd even if they are allowed to play then.

This sucks !! Since literally zero college kids have been hospitalized I selfishly wish they didn’t have to test anyone. Obviously if they are sick they should be tested etc. but I would love to ask the players that tested positive if they even knew they had it. Oh well. I hope they recover.

predictable but very disappointing.....

 

aloha

Welcome to College Football in 2020. Likely going to postpone until December since it's too soon to pass all the quarantine protocols to field a capable team by Oct. 3rd. Sucks but likely not the last disruption...GO IRISH!

Game with Wake now reset to Dec. 12, so team will now have 2 weeks off. The they havce tio shake off the rust. Gonna be a tough year for every team.

Not sure it is genuine to say no college kids are impacted. Yes maybe at ND

Regardless, it’s minimal. Alcohol poisoning is infinitely more dangerous for college students

This story was retracted already because his former high school and college were made aware that he had underlying conditions and was sidelined by the team long before his covid diagnosis for that reason.

 

Just sayin....

Mitch Daniels, President of Purdue, recently mentioned that, based on numbers, there are three or four other causes that he worries more about than Covid in terms of potential student fatalities.

 

He did not mention the other causes but another web site gave me:

 

According to the study Causes of Mortality Among College Students, the three most common causes of death among college aged students, ages 18 -24, are accidents, including alcohol related injuries, suicide, and cancer.

Fair, but i also think it is disingenuous to say not a single college student has been hospitalized. Obv lower levels, not disputing that... just not 0

Sure, they've been hospitalized, but I think it's also fair to say that perfectly healthy players with no underlying issues don't make up any of those figures...

 

If anything, this overarching requirement to test proves that many more people either have it or have had it with zero health complications as a result.
