It’s not actual playing, it’s the before and after socializing that puts them at risk.

Maybe the alcohol a defender?

This is another and we need to be careful. Just ask those that ride bikes in TV
I agree, it not the actual playing golf it’s the before and after.

How many things did she touch during this time? Did she constantly wash her hands? Was she constantly wearing a mask? This a virus the same as a cold. Over the years how many times have you caught a cold and can’t remember being near someone with a cold. I’ll bet the answer is dozens. This is a pandemic virus and you can only do so much to avoid getting it. As they say in combat there is no safe place either you get it or you don’t. If you are that freaked out over it I would suggest you invest in a class five biohazard suit, sit in your house and wait for the vaccine. In the meantime I’ll continue to wear my mask, wash my hands and socially distance myself and try to have a normal a life as possible.
It was not in this country, which we have the most lazy and uninformed population in the world.

Did you read it. They used technology not some pencil neck agenda opinion that we get in this country

Somebody in the group had to interact with someone who passed on the virus.. It just doesn't magically appear. Give me a break.

You are the problem, how anyone can think that people want to see your face at the risk of getting sick is selfish and stupid.
It's not all about you, wear a damn mask!
I know 3 that died in the last 2 days here in Florida, it is real.

Ditto on this article. It's just hype to justify even more Orwellian control. Pretty soon, I'll be told to wear a mask while taking a shower in my own bathroom.

10 feet ... 25 feet ... so what. All of this has been happening for thousands of years. It's the same with the common cold or the flu virus (which does kill people). What's different now except control over the masses and to distract from some other things going on in the world?

If someone PROVED that I could catch COVID from particles that were carried via the jet stream 4000 miles away, I am STILL NOT GOING TO WEAR A MASK IN PUBLIC and certainly not in my own home. Yes, the US Constitution TRUMPS anything these mayors, governors, health officials have to say. Guidelines? Fine. Orders? Absolutely not.

Why can't we all just worship the god of evolution which is taught in our public schools ... survival of the fittest? Let it all play out and the strong will perpetuate the race.


I have a better idea...why don't you spend one day helping out at these struggling hospitals or observe in ICU, then we'll all hear what you have to say.

She just said she did believe South Korean news , said it was sobering.
Probably more accurate than the media in the United States.

Covid is in the air, and eventually we will all be exposed (if we haven't already been). I don't worry about it one bit. I wash my hands, and don't wear a mask unless required (doctor's office, market, etc.). Actually, I'm sick and tired of hearing of it on the news. It's as if nothing else is happening in the world. No accidents, no terrorism (like we should believe that), nothing worthy to report, except trying to scare us or politicize Covid-19.

How can they possibly know that he didn’t get it the day before or after . The article is fake news .

Wow, isn't this something?
I also read something interesting in regards to the COVIC infections. Just the other day, I read that a 103 year old granny in Moldova has been isolated in her home and has not been out and about for 7 months during the pandemic. No one has been in her home during that time, not even family. She states that she talked to a family member on the phone recently and has now found out that she is infected with the virus. Apparently, she was not wearing a mask when she was speaking on the phone.
