    Have Any NFL Players Died Of The COVID?

    At Least Four Strains Of COVID-19 Were Found In Ravens’ Facility, Team President Dick Cass Says

    https://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2020/...ass-statement/

    “Throughout the season, the NFL has updated the protocol to reflect new knowledge about the coronavirus and its spread,” Cass said. “We believe in the protocol and made every effort to adhere to it. We strive not only to “play like a Raven” but also to “comply like a Raven.”

    The outbreak within the organization forced the Ravens-Steelers game set for Thanksgiving night to be moved three times.

    The team has not had a positive test for four straight days.

    Baltimore will host the Dallas Cowboys on Tuesday night.

    Most died from car accidents and heart disease. Why not ban cars for NFL players if they truly care about them? This whole Covid thing is a joke

    Covid is a joke for the healthy and fit.

    I always said keep the elderly and sickly people isolated and wearing masks not the the rest of the healthy world.

    No reason to shut down economies over this BS.
