What's your best guess as to when trainings will resume?

To protect the wearer, it is hard. Don't bother unless you are particularly at risk.

To protect others, any cloth mask will do, so long as it slows your outgoing breath. A bandana is fine. Web search for made in usa cloth masks brings up some nice ones.
it is false sense of security to wear a cloth face mask or a bandana. It does absolutely nothing to protect you and anyone next to you. Surgical mask for that matter is the same.
 
Back to the question, when will trainings resume...since the question is resume vs. allowed, my foggy crystal balls indicates that some teams will begin training in June, but more realistically in July. I know clubs that are contacting the entities responsible for their fields and are trying to get them to allow trainings to resume. I suspect that it will require clubs to submit a detailed plan of the manner in which they will protect players and coaches. However, if you play in the City of LA I don't see your trainings resuming until at least September. For the whole state I don't see formal games until 2021 (I hope I'm wrong).

My caveat to all this is that the will of the people and the leaders of some counties may take things into their own hands and overwhelm the Governor and force him to be more lenient, or turn a blind eye, but I'm not holding my breath. Based on what I saw this past weekend in public, it appears that many people are done with the lockdown and are moving on. The sentiment is that we did what we were told and flattened the curve to not overwhelm hospitals, so screw the moving of the goal posts, were putting on our big boy pants (with our mask, of course) and getting back to work.
 
Newsom just started pro sports can come back (without fans) in first week or so of June. Hope this means kids can start back up as well.

CDC says otherwise. It catches some large droplets, and slows the others so they dont go as far.

We aren't talking 95% here. 50% still helps reduce Rt, which is enough.
 
Great news! Also a round of applause for San Diego's leadership that have objected to Newsom's draconian reopening requirements (on a somewhat bi-partisan basis) .
 
You guys are over analyzing this. The only way to deal with this virus, short of a vaccine, is to get the antibodies for it by getting it.
Sorry, but this is false. There is no evidence that recovering from the virus imparts immunity. There is growing evidence that you can get reinfected after only 6 weeks. And the idea that we should get sick to prevent getting sick is... not particularly rational.
 
just so you understand, take a look at this video
You get your medical information from DJ Jay Bling, and I’ll get mine from CDC and WHO.

If you’re a chem person, you’d notice that the video uses non-polar oil spray at high velocity to simulate polar water spray at low velocity. We already know cotton doesn’t trap oil. This is why your dad always told you not to touch the side of the tent. Oil makes the cloth more porous.

Wash out your wife’s old perfume mister and try it with water. You’ll get a different result.

Better yet, if you want to know about cloth masks and water droplets, here is a video of someone who used a laser to look for water droplets with and without a cloth mask. The no mask version has far more green specks that the mask version. That means more water got through with no mask.


Use a good monitor. You can’t really see it on a phone.

So I have to ask.. What is your plan? Are you self isolating until there is a vaccine? Seems to be what you are leading to.
 
If the virus is not imparting immunity, the vaccine will not impart immunity. Just FYI..... A vaccine uses destroyed (simplistic term), "dead" (simplistic term) or in some cases living virus to make the body have an antibody response without actually contracting the disease. The one US vaccine entering stage 2 trials this week states an antibody response on par with those recovered from covid.
 
First, thank you for your attempt to get this post back on track.
Second, that is really great that San Diego is presenting a plan of action and I am hopeful it works.

My question to all the OC people (except ellejustus or his many alias') if LA county decides NO YOUTH SPORTS and San Diego county has youth sports or is at least starting to train and slowly opening back up, what does OC do? Just from what I am seeing as I drive around, I would think OC wants to open up? Is anyone seeing something different or thinks OC will side more with what LA does?

So what do you suggest? Staying home until a cure is found? This must be working for you, but not for others. You can stay home as long as you want but don't force other people.

The personality of OC seems more comparable to San Diego than LA. I'm not sure why any county would want to hitch its cart to LA...for any issue.

quick question: do you have pointers to data/reports on folks getting reinfected? genuine question.

been wondering about this but hadn't seen any info on it yet. had some family members get sick in mid-March.

One was sick - but not diagnosed - first, and then a week later her husband got sick and was diagnosed. She did not get sick again despite remaining in close quarters for two weeks with her husband, while he was sick so the working family assumption was that she had the CV bug and that imparted immunity, at least in the short term.

There have been reports of reinfection, but so far its seems that it has been due to limitations of the testing and not actual reinfection.
