Hide Ya Wives, Hide Ya Kids: Worldwide Coronavirus Pandemic!

Something I was surprised to hear (but probably shouldn't) is that NONE of the vaccine trials (in the US, at least) include anyone under the age of 18. I understand the ethics behind this, but never really considered that children will be given a vaccine that was never tested on minors. Does anyone know if common vaccines (flu, for example) are the same dose for children and adults?

That's a good question. I've never given a vaccine to anyone under 18, as all my patients are adults..so no idea lol

Being on disability (for severe Crohn's Disease) over the last 6 months, I can't play, but I also kinda realized, at 44, I can't keep playing with these kids half my age at the gym. Not because I can't hold my own (I'm 6' but I can still shoot pretty darn well, and when I drive to the basket, I just have to choose my spots to do it), but because if I get hurt (before disability) I'm possibility out of work for a bit and not getting paid. These young guys, a lot don't worry about getting hurt as most aren't married with a mortgage at their early 20s.
So I'm glad I stopped playing. I'll still go to the park on occasion if I'm feeling well enough (Crohn's is awful and without a restroom nearby, it makes doing things outside of home, extremely difficult) to go outside for a little exercise (I gotta exercise a little while on disability) I'll go to an empty park to shoot by myself. Even if for 20 minutes, it's something.
If I was 100% healthy, I still wouldn't play with a group. Being a transplant patient, can't risk getting the virus and really messing me up. It's kinda why I got back into tennis back in 2018. A great sport you can do alone with a wall nearby or a ball machine (which I do have). Much safer and a perfectly socially distancing sport.
And to answer the other discussion on pick up games. I detested shirts vs skins!! Hated it so much!! That's a big NO in today's world!

What masks are you guys wearing to exercise outdoors? Looking for a good mask with a valve for biking around town as the cloth masks I wear for biking get extremely hot.
I saw Under Armour is coming up with an athletic inspired mask with breathable materials but it doesn’t have a valve.

I personally think if you are doing outdoor activity and can maintain social distance, a mask isn't necessary. I don't wear mask while Im running. I read reviews on UA masks, and some said it is too big.
Asics has better design IMO, but not available just yet.

They activated the emergency response teams at the hospital... now we have to deal with this all while a hurricane is heading towards us. What could go wrong?

For outdoor exercise where you won't be near other people, a basic earloop procedure mask should be sufficient. The Adidas masks seem to be highly regarded in terms of comfort and breathability. If you're looking to protect yourself, I'd go with a KN95.

Anyone know of a good cotton neck gaiter? I hear fleece is terrible, and can potentially make it worse if you sneeze.
