My guess is soccer could return in FEB.

“Could” and “possibly” are very ambiguous terms. Can you help provide some support on how probable the possibility of an asymptomatic person developing a severe enough case myocarditis that leads to heart damage?

I don’t think anyone has enough data at this point to answer that question. Here’s a good read on the topic though. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.fo...heart-damageeven-if-you-are-asymptomatic/amp/

I think the only way to find out that data would be to run an experiment where college teams start their seasons and wait to see what happens. I hope nobody dies during the experiment.
The "problem" is we don't have all the facts yet. The virus is new. It sounds like you are willing to take the risk not only with your only player but every other athlete. That is your choice.
That’s all we want, a choice!

Once there is a vaccine everyone should have a choice again. I expect good results late NOV.

We should have a choice now not wait until there is a vaccine. We should be focusing on therapeutics, not convinced there will be a vaccine for Covid. So many viruses that have no vaccine yet...flu, cold, HIV

You want the choice to risk the health of other people?
Other people who are concerned (such as yourself) or who may be at risk would have a choice too.
How does this work?
Each person, independently, chooses what risks they wish to take. I get to choose lower risk by wearing a mask and shopping once a week. And my neighbor gets to choose to hold parties and go out to dinner when he likes.
Last I checked, my neighbor and I live in the same city. How exactly do you propose his risks stay on his side of the fence?
No one talking about house parties, we are talking about youth sports and school....stay on track.
What is the difference in an epidemiological sense?
There is a HUGE difference. House parties with no masks and no social distancing, people close together, drinking = super spreader event. Soccer with subs sitting 6 feet apart, masks worn to and from the field and other social distancing modifications have yet to be shown to spread Covid. School with modifications and precautions probably depends on the modifications and the school.

Those modifications when combined with real sports play and practice along with campus attendance have yet to be shown to prevent the spread of COVID. Are college sports happening without the campuses being open for in-person classes? If college sports were to resume, what portion of athletes would participate due to real or unreal perceived pressure when they would prefer not to? No matter what procedures are in place, corners will be cut and there won't be enough testing. Those things cost money. The ONLY reason some conferences are having sports is to try to raise revenue from football. For colleges that do not have football, or don't actually make money from football (which is the majority), what is the incentive to spend the money and take the risk?

Stop making sense. Sports are everything. They are worth any risk. Just kidding I don't want anyone to use this post against me in the future. Personally if my player was still in college she would be sitting out. I almost wish it she was still in school because they could pay for the first year of grad school.
Continued good fortune to you and your player.

Exactly pay for that extra year helps out all parties! Well said!
