Every person will.

I see someone else knows the true statistics

Reminds me of a scene from Casablanca.
Ilsa: If you don't help us, Victor Laszlo will die in Casablanca.
Rick: What of it? I'm gonna die in Casablanca. It's a good spot for it.

I want to be clear because I believe my original post could be misinterpreted. Are the reasons that these bowl games were canceled valid? Did those who chose to have their bowl games take a grave risk? I tend to be on the side of people who want all of the games to be played for a number of reasons. Those who believe bowl games need to be shut down over a virus that, statistically speaking, usually has the same characteristics as a common cold should present evidence, in my opinion. Case numbers aren’t enough. Cases of people getting the cold are high, but there’s a reason we’ve never bothered counting them; because the cold doesn’t tend to be a serious illness. This appears to be the case with this omicron virus. Like the cold, it’s highly transmissible, but the data that so far exists doesn’t support it tending to be dangerous. Maybe some bowls have been canceled for good reason, and maybe they haven’t, but if the reasons are truly justified, let’s hear the arguments of the people who made the decision to cancel. I believe we should also listen to those who decided to go ahead with their bowl games. I hate seeing these players, these fans who waited with anticipation to see their teams in these bowls lose a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity over something that we now have multiple vaccines, medicines, antibodies, etc. for.

So I hope that clears up what I was saying. :-) Prove me and others right, or prove us wrong, but let’s get the truth out in the open.

What are the statistics that you are stating in the bolded part.

It may be best to hear from Dr. Angelique Coetzee, the South African doctor who is credited with discovering the omicron variant. She said that the symptoms she's seeing are cold or flu-like symptoms such as body aches, muscle aches and pains, and sore throat. It's easy to miss some of these symptoms, according to her. There is no severe cough with omicron. She acknowledges that the virus is more transmissible. She says that the data could change, but over this past month, she's been saying there is not reason to panic. You can hear directly from Dr. Coetzee in interviews such as this one:

There were over 60K people there, and I believe there were more than half of them not masked. Social distancing? Forget it; no way anyone could have done that there. I think we need to look at the bowl games that have been played, and the ones that will be played, look at the hospitalization and death statistics, and come to some sort of rational, fact-based conclusions.

You must be out of your mind!

LOL!

The Gators are now claiming that they HAD covid when they played so the game now becomes null and void.

That's the new excuse for Power 5 schools: We lost because . . . you know . . . COVID!

Maybe Emory Jones' incomplete passes were a symptom and we didn't know it?
