And what would they be ignoring ?

Another way to look at this, the more that can be done now to reduce the risk, the sooner things should start to return to normal.

Especially given we don't know what we don't know so there is a great deal of uncertainty. The experts will hopefully get a lot smarter over the next couple weeks once the test capacity is available on the high throughput diagnostic instruments.

I agree thank you

Too much
 

My guess is people sweat too much and that there is direct contact skin-to-skin in softball. At least with golf, you can keep a 6 foot distance from your group through all holes, AND you don't share clubs as you would share a bat, ball, and so on.

Big joke
 

Yah, a friend went to his local market last Friday. When he got to the produce area, suddenly a youngish man and woman began to cough out loud and sneeze on purpose all over the foodstuffs. He left quickly before his urge to deck them got overwhelming. They continued their store run, laughing over and over again.

COMMON SENSE--not
 

Maybe common sense isn't quite as right-on as scientific sense. Not knowing anything at all about the virus is a very bad place to be. You can't guess if this type of thing is truly killed by chlorine. Nobody, but NOBODY, knows yet. Better safe than dead.
