Reuters) - Young, previously healthy adults can take weeks to fully recover from even a mild COVID-19 infection, with about a fifth of patients under 35 years reporting not returning to their usual state of health up to 21 days after testing positive, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). A telephone survey across 13 states of symptomatic adults with mild COVID-19 found 35% had not returned to their usual state of health when interviewed two to three weeks after testing, the CDC reported in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report on Friday. Cough, fatigue and shortness of breath were among the symptoms reported while testing that persisted even weeks later, according to the report. www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-recovery/young-healthy-adults-with-mild-covid-19-also-take-weeks-to-recover-cdc-idUSKCN24P2DC |

The question becomes: do you want to be around someone still showing symptoms (coughing etc) even if they’ve been “cleared?” |

Watching the CDC’s C19 guidance evolve throughout this pandemic has been interesting. I’m married to a HC pro who works mostly with cancer patients in a large metro hospital. When her unit’s PPE was inexplicably and dangerously rationed, it was alarming. No new masks - suddenly re-using N95’s - previously unheard of. Same for gowns, booties, the works...
In hindsight I believe this was done because the C19 demand was forecast to consume an alarming amount of PPE. So they were advised to use it more sparingly. Sounds dangerous but “global pandemic” isn’t an ordinary circumstance. No matter what the task force says to the people, the CDC was monitoring and adjusting.
It’s akin to the grocery store run on Clorox wipes and hand sanitizer.. and paper towels. They were forced to ration this stuff.
So for some to jump all over Fauci saying “he said this at X date” is simply turning a blind eye toward the whole story. What has been lacking from day one is leadership. The us versus them political posturing is simply dangerous. As the old soccer forum succinctly told us so many times “Everything rises and falls on leadership”. We have fallen a very LONG way.

Anyone have any info? Most clubs have teams training throughout the day, starting as early as 8:30. The cancellations for today are due to overnight rain. |

Interesting white paper. I view it with a bit of skepticism because it’s produced by an industry that stands to benefit from a positive outlook, but interesting nonetheless. NEW STUDY FINDS LIMITED COVID-19 TRANSMISSION DURING OUTDOOR YOUTH SPORTS IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY surfcupsports.com/2020/08/14/youth-sports-covid-safety-whitepaper/Study offers path forward for San Diego County to safely reopen outdoor youth sports DEL MAR, CA, August 14, 2020 – Today Surf Cup Sports is announcing the results of an eight-week study analyzing the safety of outdoor youth soccer in San Diego County. The county’s top youth soccer clubs, led by Surf Cup Sports, have taken the lead on studying the impact of COVID-19 transmission within outdoor youth sports – specifically soccer. 6,560 players and 263 coaches from 6 soccer clubs located across San Diego County, from Oceanside to Chula Vista, participated in the study. Over the course of eight weeks 143,000 soccer sessions were analyzed and only 15 (.01%) confirmed cases were found. For each of the identified cases, all were found to have been transmitted outside of the soccer sessions. “The COVID-19 pandemic is taking a dramatic toll on the physical and mental health of kids across San Diego County,” said Brian Enge, CEO, Surf Cup Sports. “The positive value of youth sports has never been more crystal clear and this study indicates that when done correctly, a safe environment for outdoor youth sports is possible.” With clearance to return to play on June 12, youth soccer clubs across San Diego County have been hosting onsite training sessions for teams weekly. With respect to soccer, early data suggests that the time spent in close proximity to other players during a soccer game is limited and falls far below the duration that is felt to represent sufficient exposure to result in viral transmission. Research and testing will continue, but initial results show promising signs that outdoor sports in large areas are safe for kids 6-18. “We are safely ready for the next step in the County’s Return to Play planning. Training has presented a 0.0104% transmission and it’s our ask to add the variable of controlled game play to the current, safe environment we’ve created for our players,” said Josh Henderson, National Technical Director, San Diego Surf Soccer Club. OUR STUDY INTRODUCTION: As San Diego continues in Phase 1 of Reopening, activity and game play limited due to the increase and growing number of COVID-19 cases in San Diego, soccer players are being negatively mentally impacted without competition. With clearance to return to play on June 12, youth soccer clubs around San Diego County have been hosting onsite training sessions for teams weekly. With respect to soccer, early data seems to suggest that the time spent in close proximity to other players during a soccer game is limited and falls far below the duration that is felt to represent sufficient exposure to result in viral transmission. As research and testing continue to provide clearer answers, it’s apparent that outdoor sports in large areas will almost certainly have a lower transmission risk than indoor activities in confined spaces. METHODS: We identified 6 top clubs (San Diego Surf Soccer Club, Oceanside Breakers, Carlsbad City, Albion Soccer Club, Rebels Soccer Club and San Diego Soccer Club) that represent the entirety of San Diego County, from Oceanside to Chula Vista. From there, we collected training data from an 8-week period that encompassed total players, sessions and COVID positive cases to track transmission. RESULTS: Together, the San Diego soccer community had 6,560 players and 263 coaches participate in over 143,000 soccer sessions with only 15 confirmed cases, all transmitted outside of these soccer sessions – resulting in a .0104% positive rate per session. |

“Georgia Southern has suspended football practice due to a rise in COVID-19 infections among the team, it was first reported by WJCL in Savannah.”
