I’ve got the Omicron right now and it sucks so bad, I can’t imagine doing anything remotely physical for a while. Hope he gets well soon and the rest of the team can steer clear.

Hope you feel better buddy. Thoughts and prayers. Hoping Ankou gets better as well.

Serious question, can tests tell the strain? 
Feel better soon!

Not usually. They just test to see if you have the virus, but not what kind of strain.

Somewhat off topic, but if a high profile player like Mahomes or Brady was put on the Covid list in the next few days and couldn't play this weekend would the NFL really stand their ground and move forward with playing the game as scheduled?

 

Either way it's a amazing the league is reaching the close of their season with very few games having to be reshuffled given the current virus surge in recent weeks.

They would postpone until after 5 day waiting period, but only for those 2 players and nobody else. Rodgers used to be one of those, but he pissed the higher ups off so they dropped him.

It really makes you wonder but I'm sure Roger Goodell is on pins and needles praying to get out of the playoffs unscathed and not having to deal with this exact type of situation.

I was thinking about this same issue this morning...Omicron spread around our County like wildfire.  The playoffs start, and we haven't heard a thing about players testing positive.

Because they are not testing as often. The rules changed recently

Sorry to hear that, man.  We (me, my kids and my parents) just got it this past weekend.  Was just a minor cold (post-nasal drip, sore throat and light cough) for maybe 48 hours.  Back out riding my bike today and I felt good, but noticed that my heart rate was elevated compared to my effort level.  Hope you're feeling better soon.

At this point I think it is pretty much a certainty that all infections are Omicron. It has established itself as the dominant strain because it’s able to spread and stay alive the best. Thankfully it’s also the weakest strain, but the virus doesn’t care whether it kills you, it just wants to live and move on.

Actually, I’m not an expert, but I’ve read studies on this, viruses tend to trend in a way that is less lethal with every variant because it would rather not kill you, instead it would rather keep you alive to host. That’s not always the case but is the large majority of the time.

Only if you FaceTime. I think we’re safe.

   They would play the games with the backup qbs. Unless a team had so many positives they don't have the players to field a team.  I'd imagine it would take a serious outbreak for that many positives to show up and at that point a football game would be of less concern than having a catastrophic outbreak.

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a very specific reason to revive this one.
