2022–23 PBA Commissioner's Cup

No, the season would not continue when there is no vaccine, so the organization are just being realistic with their plan, it's better to know what's coming and make a timely decision that let the fans expect on anything that would not likely to happen.

That's if a vaccine would take that long. Yeah, I agree on the cancellation of the 2020 season if vaccine take that too long as it'll deduct more the potential of spreading the virus as we know there are a lot of PBA fans that want to watch a game live.

Vaccine would take long, according to some experts, it will take a year or more to develop it as there will be a lost of test that will be done before it will gain  approval. Don't know about the law of the Philippines, maybe they can fast track it, but let's hope the vaccine was already discovered by now.

Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, recently said that a COVID-19 could take 12 to 18 months to develop, test and approve for public use. But new vaccines typically take years to earn approval — can we really expect a coronavirus vaccine to be ready by summer 2021?     

Experts told Live Science that, for any other vaccine, the timeline would be unrealistic. But given the current pressure to stave off the pandemic, a COVID-19 vaccine could be ready sooner, as long as scientists and regulatory agencies prove willing to take a few shortcuts.

Here's why it probably can't be developed any sooner than 12 to 18 months.

With this lockdown people /fans are already excited if the commissioners will resume the game they will be there at the arena to watch live. There's no guarantee that they can sort all those possible affected person to enter the place because even there's no sign of a virus the chance of carrying it is really risky.
We can extend the wait than risking fans health it will also help the government to lessen the casualties of this pandemic virus.

...

The thing is that I don't have any idea how long creating the vaccine, etc works... I just hope that vaccine wouldn't take that too long and so everything goes back to normal.

Yeah, I think they can. Proceeding with the social distancing by having a seating plan not allowing every middle of the seats and checking all the temperature of the fans that those just have 37° below are allowed to watch. But that's hard and still a risky to pull off.

you can see in my post, expert says it will take a year to create the vaccine, of course we want to see it sooner than the expectation but they can't compromise the life of the people here, the vaccine could have a side effect that will ruin the life of the people who get vaccinated in the long run.

Doctors and scientist are just trying to make it safe for everyone, that is why there is a process.

We cannot rely on thermal scanners since it cannot detect accurately since there are asymptomatic which is not showing symptoms and we have several cases here that's why this virus spread faster than we though, And its a big risk since this could contribute for the spread.

And besides I don't think social distancing will be implemented since when people got into the climax of the game for sure they will forget the distancing things.

That's a huge gamble for the org if they'll insist on considering the continuation of the game allowing the fans to watch live. Though having such prior requirements to enter the stadium itself, it isn't effective as we imagine it would since there were cases that can't be seen by a given materials. Hence, if number of cases blows out after the event, there are several things that is for certain would happen here, and that's total cancellation of the game or still resume but no fans are allowed to watch the game. So apparently, it would just go air on TV or online.

They can't just risk lives over the love of the game. So no matter what would it be, if vaccines are yet to be created, if the community isn't virus free, fans still would always end up staying indoors.

Agree with you, it's a gamble because some people does not have symptoms but they are already infected with the virus.
The fact that the Philippines lacks medical equipment to determine if a certain person is covid free or not immediately, that would put our country at big risk.

So yeah, continuing the PBA 2020 season would be a big problem if the situation of the coronavirus pandemic in our country is still at high level. How about, the ECQ that would be lifted at 15th of May. It occurs that those 20 year old above are now allowed to go outside. That's scary.

The things would not be settled till the time we have red zones in our areas or in the country. Because somehow if those travel outside or anywhere without they knowing they are infected could create further more positive patients and this way the spread will continue to rise in future till the time we have vaccines available for the same.

After the ECQ it does not mean the country will be back to normal, just like in some provinces that is not fully affected by the virus, they are under the GCQ now, and there are still strict measures being impose, and under the GCQ guidelines, this PBA games fall to those who are not permitted to operate.

If no vaccine discovered we will never get back to normal since there's always threat around the corner, We can't see the enemy so pushing any social gathering will lead to worse case scenario since we might gonna see another breakout of the virus and I'm sure all of us doesn't want that to happen again. So best for the safety of the fans and the player the PBA management should decide wisely about this situation.

[Sanitough]

If no vaccine discovered we will never get back to normal since there's always threat around the corner,

That's the very sad reality, I guess it's this year we will have more time staying in our home that going out because this virus could affect our entire family if we get infected, so prevention is always better than cure, I am also thinking that I will not gonna accept some visitors in my house just to ensure that no one will get close within our family as we never know if a person is a virus carrier.

That is what most heartbreaking to do, isn't? Not allowing your relatives, friend, and many more that have value in your life just because of this terrifying virus.

No PBA and many more, huh. Great

Indeed. This pandemic have a huge effect in our daily lives  that makes it so upsetting that every important events of our lives have postponed, and now it will take a very long time for us to get back to our normal lives and were now living the new normal life such as social distancing, always bringing sanitation, curfews, and having trust issues to strangers.

I also think that 2020 PBA season might not happen and other sports events due to the pandemic of corona virus, even the age over 21-years old are now allowed to go outside because there are still chances that the cases of corona virus will continuously increase.

More details above.

With that article from spin.ph Roger Yap confirmed that he's the man the mayor was talking about, he admitted it but the allegations regarding to his badmouthing to the front-liners he cleared it up to the mayor he even ask the Mayor to have a face to face talk with those affected parties in order to settle the issue. He also mentioned his close relationship with the mayor's brother in-law as he's former teammate so he probably respect the mayor and all the good works that he's doing from the City.

It's very sad and unfortunate for us waiting for the games to start especially waiting for our favorite team schedule to play and also their road games but we cannot do nothing with this since this is global issue and worse case scenario will come if we or they will not follow what the experts orders so for the safety of all and if we want to make fast to get back our normal life we should cooperate as well the other to stop the social gatherings for now and let this case controlled so that if the vaccine became available the games for sure came back with different intensity.

[mirakal]

After the ECQ, it will be GCQ and PBA is not hoping that they'll be able to return soon since the guidelines still does not allow them to resume. 

GCQ guidelines offer no hope that PBA games can resume anytime soon

Like in the ECQ, sports-related mass gatherings are still barred during the GCQ although the government is now considering allowing some sports which can be practiced under strict social distancing guidelines to resume.
