Dr. Fauci Says Sports Can Return If Teams Are Quarantined & Stadiums Are Empty

by Staff Reporter

April 15, 202087 Comments

Stephen Lew-USA TODAY Sports

Dr. Anthony Fauci was interviewed by Peter Hamby of Snap Original on Tuesday and said that sports should be able to return as long as the teams are quarantined and stadiums are empty. Per ProFootballTalk:

quote:
“There’s a way of doing that,” Fauci said. “Nobody comes to the stadium. Put them in big hotels, wherever you want to play . . . have them tested every week and make sure they don’t wind up infecting each other or their family and just let them play the season out.”

Fauci said he’s sympathetic to the strong desire in America to see sports again, and that he’s a fan himself.

“I want to see them play again,” he said.

We can play again win there are no deaths any where in the world. the end.

LSU615•61 months

I didn't vote for Fauci. Quarantine the vulnerable, stop being pu$$ies and open this thing up.

conman•61 months

Amen. This nation would not have gotten its independence from the British acting this way back then. To hell with Fauci and the MSM. Let’s get on with life people

Run DMC•61 months

Agree 100%. It’s getting ridiculous. MF’s are gonna die. It’s just how it is. Nothing we can do about it. Been having plagues and $hit for thousands of years.

America1776•61 months

@conman, I was hoping someone would bring up events from 1776. It’s relevant and an excellent point. I wish more people acted like Americans did back then. Sure, wooden teeth would be a drag—but we’d have football!

bullshite. It's ok for healthcare workers to wear the same PPE for multiple patients. Then go home to their families risking infecting their loved ones. This is all just stupid.

SomeTigre•61 months

STFU and STAY HOME!

You have to really twist your head to get past the stuff they proclaim

We need to make sure each team is still adhering to the 6 foot rule when playing. We can never be too careful.

He's basically a glorified weatherman who's been wrong about almost everything since February.

denvertiger•61 months

That's right, smartie. A guy who is one of the preeminent experts immunoregulation for the better part of 50 years is a glorified weatherman. We should be following the guidance of the talking heads in the media instead.

LSUgrad08112•61 months

He’s a “little picture” guy. He can be the greatest immunoregulation expert on Earth (even though he’s been completely and utterly wrong about everything thus far) and it doesn’t qualify him to make the decision on how the country should move forward when taking economics and other things into account. It would seem that the “scientific” community has turned into a bunch of chicken littles who are only concerned with spreading doomsday scenarios when the data suggests that it’s time to move on. The best move is to quarantine the at-risk and old and open society back up, this isn’t a major risk to 95% of the population

stowns•61 months

uh...this is inaccurate. his boss contradicts every statement he makes and look where that's gotten us. a nice gradual slide from thanking China to blaming the WHO for thanking China. finger-pointer in chief is doing a bang-up job of operating like a QB and have the shortest memory possible.

So now the flu stops all human interaction. And the good news, the government will save you and make all decisions for the individual. Got it.

nearly a half a million people die from smoking each year in the united states. More people die each year (41,000) from second hand smoke than have died from coronavirus. we are living in crazy town.

stowns•61 months

because the world is shut down. if the extreme measures that have been taken by the entire world hadn't...the # of deaths would be exponentially higher. jesus, christ, you, people, are, dumb

CanebreakCajun•61 months
