Back to surf cup.
It seems a big uphill for them to climb to have it actually happen this summer.

I saw it. https://blockclubchicago.org/2020/0...ands-show-up-for-black-and-transgender-lives/
And as the photos show, most people were masked so much like the protests in NYC have shown, you would not expect this to increase transmissions.
Hong Kong has the same population as LA and much greater density. They never locked down and have had about ten deaths. Why? Because they have 97% mask compliance. Testing, tracing and masks. If we could all agree to that and had some leadership this thing would be mostly behind us in two months. Instead we have people saying that it violates their rights or making up that it's unhealthy. And some want to say they can't breathe with one one, but somehow are healthy enough to deal with the virus if they get it.
All of this means that we are going to be talking about anything but actual soccer being played for a long while.
Are we still waiting for them to announce they are moving it to Labor Day weekend?

They already have Man City that weekend
Unless most of us plan to be more cautious in July than we were in June, we should expect cases to be even worse by then. Can’t see Labor day tourneys, either.
I second this. Everyone put on a mask so we can play in Surf Cup, Albion Cup, and whatever other tournaments are open along the coast. (Sorry Silverlakes - we live in CA not Arizona for a reason)
I don't care what your political affiliation is. Just put on a mask or face shield. We'd like to move on with our lives and watch our children get their butts kicked on the soccer pitch by all the unicorns out there.

Hong kong gets tracked so that's a no go here. I agree the scientists lied to us. They said dont use masks that they didn't work. Now they do work. People get mad and protest the government and get hammered by the media for not wearing masks. Then the protestors and looters are out there the next week without the masks and the media goes radio silence. Then the media is back out against people not wearing masks. Then they took pride day off. Now we are back to masks being the answer. So the back and forth leads people right down the path to calling bullshit on all of it.

they can say it but they won't say it
I heard from a source that Surf Cup will be on Labor Day for olders, and Man City Cup will be later in the Fall.
I heard similar from sources in the know down there. SC is getting pushed. Did not hear the Man City info.
There is some evidence you can get it more than once. Hope not. Maybe those who got it twice had false negative tests, twice and really never got over it.Clemson football players have 14 that came down with it. I think they plan on getting it early so when it comes time for National Championship run they will be healthy.
Clemson football: 14 more positive tests; 37 total
Clemson announced Friday that 14 football players tested positive for the coronavirus over the past week after 23 tested positive earlier this month.www.espn.com
Not yet.
Even if you can get it twice, when have they said if those patients even feel symptoms or can spread the virus? If this was true, they would have announced it loud and clear. Apparently, from news stories, “a lot of people” have tested positive twice, but not one have we heard has died, or caused a major spreader event.

lemme know im taking the 99.94% recovery rate tot the bank that's the only stat relevant.
Might want to check your source on that.
0.06% fatality is an order of magnitude smaller than most reports.
Or are you looking at a younger subgroup and ignoring transmission effects?
24 hours makes a huge difference
From an interview with Dr. Sean O’Leary, a pediatric infectious disease specialist officially representing the American Academy of Pediatrics, published in the New York Times:
”kids really do seem to be both less likely to catch the infection and less likely to spread the infection. It seems to be even more true for younger kids, under 10 or under 12. And older kids seem to play less of a role than adults.“

Guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics encourage “having students physically present in school.” Dr. Sean O’Leary, an author of that advice, explains why.
COVID-19 Transmission and Children: The Child Is Not to Blame
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) presents arguably the greatest public health crisis in living memory. One surprising aspect of this pandemic is that children appear to be infected by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19, far less frequently...
