re: Will the virus have an effect on the schedule

People like you are in for a rude awakening with no evidence it slows down as being a seasonal virus.

You will be lucky if anything even happens this year in any sport. More than likely the NFL season is not happening and Brees retires.

I swear some of you people live in a bubble. If this thing is not seasonal and gives us no break, you're going to see a complete economical collapse across the entire world. It's going to be much worse than the great depression considering the lifestyle and how different the modern world is. Better wake up. It's not sensationalism or fearmongering. Nobody can predict where this virus will be 6 months from now but your priorities better be looking beyond football and preparing. Hopefully, it ends up seasonal, gives us a break and the if it resurfaces we'll be much more prepared to handle it.

I wouldn't doubt due to extreme situations if this bypasses some clinical trials for the vaccine. I'm definitely pro vaccine but I also understand how they work. They're dangerous in early trials so I would not be for them bypassing trials to get it on the market faster for mass population use. Certified vaccines are 99.9% safe for the population but a rushed one could be disastrous.
