Would you attend a game if vaccine for COVID19 is not yet developed?

pimike · 04-10-20, 10:28 AM

We only need spacing

carolinakid · 04-10-20, 10:30 AM

i would rather watch it on one of my hd tvs here with the food i like and the betting tools at hand to make bets if i see it warrant for the game...

JIBBBY · 04-10-20, 10:31 AM

Probably not why chance it. Front row seats on a floor I think I go though.

carolinakid · 04-10-20, 10:34 AM

the only way i would go if i was given a suite pass and heck i had a suite here for the unc/cuse basketball game in the tourney and i decided to stay home and watch it on tv.......and my drive time would only been about 20 mins to it with my own parking space to boot.

In a poll of 760 Americans, 72% said No.

pologq · 04-10-20, 12:04 PM

i would not

we need rapid accurate testing and antibody testing before i would think of it

that being said i do not go to many games anyway.

RudyRuetigger · 04-10-20, 12:10 PM

wouldnt go to a game if covid19 didnt exist and you paid me $50

Black Coffee · 04-10-20, 12:12 PM

Probably not..

Watching on TV w/ good food, betting and drinking usually win out for me...

It's a loaded question. Vaccines for viruses are rare.

There is NOT a vaccine for influenza. There is NOT a vaccine for AIDS/HIV. The list goes on.

If you're waiting on a magic virus pill, then just stay home. The world doesn't like you.

The Flu and Colds mutate seasonally. they are smart as hell, smarter than the sharpest sharps in the world.

COVID-19 appears to be a slow mutation so a vaccine will theoretically last longer.

however the timeline is 12 to 18 mos at needs to go through stringent testing at multiple levels (animals then small control group then larger control group) and each phase takes several months even a year of monitoring.

SBR_Guest_Pro · 04-10-20, 12:47 PM

do you mean in august, september, now?
Come september ish, i'd definitely go. I've never gotten the flu shot, and i'll never get the coronavirus shot

jjgold · 04-10-20, 12:53 PM

No way

Wabashwonders · 04-10-20, 12:59 PM

A better question might be how will all this affect ticket prices? I would think prices would drop to get people to go.

i'll buy 3 if it's cheap enough and go solo. That way no one sits next to me

JIBBBY · 04-10-20, 01:00 PM

I'd go to a Dodger game in summer if I could sit alone in the bleacher seats.. Lay a fat bet on the blue crew, drink, stretch out and chill and catch a tan in the process..

Actually sounds like a good time.. Bring a buddy along that is corona free. Why not.. Talk on the cell phone during innings of play.. Check scores. Live bet on the cell phone. Etc..

carolinakid · 04-10-20, 01:01 PM

^^^^^^^how ABOUT THE PERSONS IN FRONT OF YOU OR BEHIND YOU

It would have to be pretty empty.. That's why I said bleacher seats. An early Dodger day game with empty bleachers. I'd go if I had nothing going on. Maybe wear a mask..

sweethook · 04-10-20, 02:01 PM

i wouldnt go with or with out the china virus . i just bet numbers thats it

SBR_Guest_Pro · 04-10-20, 02:03 PM

no one is going to have this thing in september.

mcaulay777 · 04-10-20, 02:07 PM

Yes I would be more scared of someone hitting me in my car while texting.I hope people are scared to return maybe ticket prices will be cheaper and a lot less traffic.

Alot less LA traffic where I'm at now.. I'm loving it!!!

You could actually drive from the beach to the staples center in down town LA before a game in no traffic if the games were still being played today.. That would never be the case before Corona.

It's like it was here 30 years ago before the border flood gates were opened up to Mexico..

krk1030 · 04-10-20, 02:14 PM

Vaccine may be ready for 2021 football season.

Better figure something out in the meantime

it comes back in OCT with the flu then, except it is like the flu on steroids.

stay tuned. it will be a rough ride. protect yourself until vaccine arrives in Summer 2021

thetrinity · 04-10-20, 03:26 PM

I would but you won’t see games with fans until that happens

homie1975 · 04-10-20, 03:40 PM

so far 66.7% NO
33.3% Yes

slightly lower than the poll of 762 from MD released a day or two ago

Optional · 04-10-20, 03:44 PM

After 40,000 from one Italian town went to see Atalanta in the champions league, and 7000 got infected all at once, and 1000 of them died due to the mass of ill people at one time.

Probably not.

I was just having some fun with Optional.

I was in OZ for a month a few years ago. Beautiful place. You will love it. I never seen more beautiful women everywhere as in Melbourne. Maybe Czech Republic.

I would definitely go back again.

Could also have Aussie cook off contests with -

Barbequed snags (aka sausages), Lamingtons, Pavlova, Meat pies, Barramundi, Vegemite on toast, etc

Voted NO, haven't been to a game in years. Open the bars, there is always going to be a Virus or something, hopefully people with use good judgement, the country is being destroyed with the quarantines continuely being moved, you have to let people make the choice good or bad and then they must live or die by their choices.
