Vaccine

What are your thoughts on how Covid might impact youth soccer the rest of this year in Southern California primarily related to having practices and playing games in league and tournaments. ( Mandates , restrictions , guidance ….. ? ) .

I don't have any specifics but things are definitely trending in a positive direction - cases are dropping fast in CA now in general and the science isn't supporting positive effects for mandates while definitely showing the negative effects the mandates have had on children. Also, more people and even left-leaning media outlets are being vocal about the absurdity of continued mandates. I agree with Kicker above, including his pause, as many of our politicians have demonstrated that they have no shame. On the bad side, many CA leaders continuously demonstrate that they are anti-children and think nothing of putting a burden on children to allay the irrational fear of adults. In LA, I think you can take your cues from what LAUSD wants. I am waiting for the next self-inflicted black eye for LAUSD but maybe they have run out of un-blacked eyes already. We can always hope.

I have an extra room. You're welcome here.
Many years ago, I had two young thick haired blonde girls and one brought home the lice from day care. I found out where the expression "nit picking" came from.......

I appreciate the offer.

My colleagues kids have gotten lice a few times. Apparently there is a heat process where you put your head in something that looks like those old school beauty salon helmets to dry your hair. Expensive but I guess they guarantee the results.

My magic 8 ball says:

Current restrictions for 2-8 weeks. Should be fine for April and beyond. We will have a small wave from the altered Omicron variant, but not big enough to cause new rules to be imposed.
 
Question on double masks. I've seen a number of people wearing or N or KN95 over a surgical mask. Doesn't that defeat the effectiveness of a 95 mask since it wouldn't have the fit required for the mask to work effectively?

In particular, I've seen this from some Olympic athletes. Some athletes are already out with asymptomatic Covid, that has to be devastating. Of course if they were a California nurse they still could go to work.

There are 3 other national factors at play that might impact us:

-War in the Ukraine. It's an open secret Russia has postponed any decision re action in the Ukraine at the request of China. The question is what happens in the 2 weeks after the Olympics and before the Ukraine becomes muddy. If the media becomes obsessed with covering the war in Europe, they'll be less people in the media to stir up panic by hanging onto the COVID bone.
-Summer Surge/New Variant. Does a new variant emerge and is there a summer surge in the south. If so, the media might not be able to help themselves bashing DeSantis' Florida and other states like Texas. If so, this will put pressure on blue state pols to act to placate the media.
-The November Elections. Everything is shaping up to an epic drubbing for the Ds rarely seen in our lifetimes. The trends are just about locked in. There's only a couple months left before all the money and candidates get locked in, only a couple months left to turn things around. If the Ds get a drubbing, the pressure to end things will be enormous and we'll join the ranks of Denmark, England, Sweden, Norway in ending restrictions. If not, we likely get a variant of some degree of significant escape, have another winter surge, and are back to some restrictions next winter.

What are the current restrictions for soccer where you are in Socal, @dawson?

Also, @dad4, what are the current restrictions in SC County? I know HS soccer is going on during the ECNL break.

If you’re going that far, you might as well buy a proper respirator with replaceable filters and a rubber seal around the mouth. The kind you’d wear for asbestos removal. It would fit better.

You spread too much misinformation. Did you even read the article? I know you probably didn't, so I will tell you what it said. Funny, do you think the actually used a doctor or someone with credentials to back the claim, nope. The articles source was "health officials" and an NFL Spokesperson. lol

You need to stop spreading misinformation, you are dangerous to the community

Masks for futsal. Other than that, no real impact on soccer.

N95 on half the people in the grocery store, though. Some offices still back to zoom.

What does it look like down south?

In LA region one of the pharma companies who shall remain nameless is facing an employee uprising. They called back their workers full time in 2 weeks, but even if they are fully vaccinated will require them to wear masks (cloth masks not accepted, must be N95s, kn95s or "tightly fitted" surgicals) in an office with mostly cubical layout. A large group of the employees, who are unhappy giving up their zoom pajama workday to begin with, has rebelled. Masks after all are for the help, and they are not the help. If the corporations decide they want their employees back in the office, I don't think the mask mandates will survive long after....the two issues though are intertwined (if you have to wear a mask, it's not safe to be around the office, though it is o.k. to go to superbowl parties....^\_(;?)_/^

I'm in SC county but with HS soccer (my daughter doesn't play) and her driving to training, I am not sure what the restrictions are anymore. I assumed next to nothing for outdoor. Makes sense that futsal requires masks. I assume you mean they require masks while playing as well. correct?

Here's a good video for you to watch, no polls to read, just listen and watch. Interesting to think that the government might not be sharing all the facts/information. Wonder why the government wouldn't share all the facts? Hmm, wonder if the government hasn't shared all the facts before in our history? Interesting?
