Domino Effect - Wow

[Anonymous]

So in theory if Player A on Team A tests positive (or even has a family member do so) then tracing means that Player A should self-quarantine for 14 days.
And Team A should self-quarantine 14 days as well.
And all Team A family members as well, including siblings.
And (if in live school classroom option) all Team A classmates and Team A sibling classmates.
And so on and so on.

Is this the expected protocol? If so, a single domino affects families, teams, classes, schools, leagues, and so on.

Wow.

Wow.

The classmates of player 1 on team A should self quarantine. The classmates of player 2 on team A do not need to self quarantine unless player 2 tests positive. If anyone linked to a person who tested positive, whole populations would be in quarantine because of one positive

Why would classmates of Player 1 self quarantine but not teammates including Player 2?
Tracing contacts is just that contacts. Alternatively as testing is available, those contacts can take a test instead of quarantining or to shorten the time.

It is not pretty to think of.

Maybe because classroom is indoors and practice is outdoors makes a difference?
And the reliability of self-reporting travel soccer families?? Oh my, really?!!

They will not do that. The sick kid may skip a practice but rest of the team will continue as usual. It’s travel soccer. Parents will be too worried about losing a spot and other parents will see it as a way to move up.

The responsible thing to do is for the parent to do is to notify the Club Director and Coach. The Director/Coach should notify the entire team and cancel all practices for at least 14 days. Otherwise, lawsuits will fly.

Wow.

I think the recommendation is to quarantine for 14 days if you have been exposed. Not if you've been exposed to someone who has been exposed.
So Team A should quarantine
And player A's family should quarantine
But assuming Team A's family members weren't hanging around at practice, siblings and other family members don't need to quarantine
Likewise, Player A's classmates need to quarantine, but not the classmates of everyone on Team A.

There really shouldn’t be any travel sports now. It’s reckless and inconsequential.

Thanks this makes sense as far as understanding.

The easiest way to think through this is to think like a professional contract tracer. If Player A gets sick/tests positive, you (a professional contact tracer) would want to establish that player's "close contacts." This is a precise term that has a precise meaning:

Someone who was within 6 feet of an infected person for at least 15 minutes starting from 2 days before illness onset (or, for asymptomatic patients, 2 days prior to specimen collection) until the time the patient is isolated.

-CDC https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/php/contact-tracing/contact-tracing-plan/appendix.html#contact

If soccer teammates truly meet that definition, coaches are running training incredibly stupidly. In fact, they should run training in ways that specifically avoid having teammates meet this definition, both for safety sake, and so the "dominoes" described above don't fall due to their practice. It's not hard to play soccer and not be within six feet of the same person for over 15 minutes. In fact, you are rarely and briefly that close to others (and usually a rotating cast of others) in a game. But it could happen in training--lines for drills, gaggle for a team talk, etc. This risk can be avoided if planned for properly. (Also, note how much lower the risk is, all things being equal, for the exposure being outside--could be 5x to 20x lower.)

So let's figure out how to let them train and play safely, and not have one domino knock down all the others.

Can you provide a list of groups that are OK to meet that isn't reckless and inconsequential? Thank you.

Correct, but you know, “soccer”...

99.99% Survival rate for those infected under the age of 50. Oh, the horror! Below is a link to Maryland’s report by age and deaths. If you can’t do simple math, you should probably keep your opinion to yourself. FYI, Flu contributes more deaths to this age bracket...

Not sure what That has to do with anything?

Were you able to crunch numbers (not using probable cases)? What was the survival rate you came up with?
