Lots of threads about playing pickleball, softball, golf, swimming etc
Conversation typically goes like this:
Go outsider: I want to play softball, pickleball, golf, swimming etc
Stay at homer: Noooooooo!!!! You'll kill us all!!!
Go outsider: How so? You don't have to play if you don't want to.
Stay at homer: Your dangerous activity will infect me when I go to Publix!!!
Go outsider: You are much more likely to get infected inside a supermarket than I am on a softball field.
Stay at homer: You'll have blood on your hands!!!
And so on...
Stay at homers should be advised that there are only two ways to reduce risk to zero.
Achieve worldwide herd immunity (could take 1.5 to 2 years) or produce 8 billion shots of 100% effective vaccine. (not likely based on medical history)
Risk of contagion drops dramatically when you are outside. In a study of : Three hundred and eighteen outbreaks with three or more cases were identified, involving 1245 confirmed cases in 120 prefectural cities. We divided the venues in which the outbreaks occurred into six categories: homes, transport, food, entertainment, shopping, and miscellaneous.
We identified only a single outbreak in an outdoor environment, which involved two cases.
Conclusions: All identified outbreaks of three or more cases occurred in an indoor environment, which confirms that sharing indoor space is a major SARS-CoV-2 infection risk

The FDA has never approved a vaccine for humans that is effective against any member of the coronavirus family, which includes SARS, MERS, and several that cause the common cold
Will There Be a Coronavirus Vaccine? Maybe Not
