[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Covid is not going anywhere. A vaccine will help slightly but not by alot.  It's coming to a field near us all. We should be moving forward - like pp said a game with restrictions on the weekends but yes- people will always test positive.The tournaments need to be scrapped though. [/quote]

A vaccine will not “help by alot”  
 
You clearly have jumped the shark of stupidity. Your agenda is childish and self centered.

Of course a vaccine will help a lot.

Go away. [/quote]

Different poster, but their point is valid about "covid is not going anywhere."  Assume a vaccine is widely available at some point in the future.  No vaccine is 100% effective in preventing you from catching a disease, so let's be optimistic and assume the covid vaccine has a 85% effective rate.  Polls show roughly 50% - 67% of Americans are willing to get the vaccine once it becomes available.  If that is the case, then roughly 43% - 57% of people will still be likely to catch covid post-vaccine, either because they did not get the vaccine, or the vaccine was not effective in stopping them from catching it.

So, if and when that is the new normal, that is the best we are going to be able to do with this disease, and those are the odds of returning to soccer/school/work, what are you going to do?   [/quote]

By targeting vulnerable people first with a vaccine makes a huge difference in returning to normal. [/quote]
