Vaccine against Covid-19 should be made before sports events will take place?

[sheenshane]

Speaking of Covid19 vaccines, all scientist over the world was competing with each other who will first discover it.

IMO, I'll go for (b) that sports events must resume prior to the creation of vaccines with conditions and high precautionary measures must be implemented first since a high number of people not only the players rely on these sports for their living. We might immediately think that this is only for the profit of those players and sports organizers but try to imagine there are also other people like the utilities and assistance that are being paid per game.

In fact, some businesses are starting to operate again not only for the profit of the company but also for the employees to start earning again the same as with sports events they must start again for people in each game should start to earn for their living. It's a risk since there's no cure for the virus however, waiting for the vaccine before we resume sports events may really cause starvation to those people who get paid per game.

Perhaps, option B will be good to do, but the event needs to be very cautious because the pandemic time is not over yet. The event needs to prepare everything, including to make sure about the safety of the audience (if they invite people to watch by live). But they can consider for no audience while the match starts to minimize the risk of the virus spreads.

But to found the vaccine, and it could need years because the vaccine needs to test first before it can be distributed to the hospital.

But let's wait for whatever sports even will be because they need to think about many things before they decide to do something. Perhaps, we will not see a live sports event for a long time before the pandemic can get over.

I disagree with your choice op. Option A will always be the better choice in the long term. Vaccines are already being developed and I think everyone will be vaccinated by this time next year. Its a tough choice, but the right one in my opinion.

You are missing the point. COVID has the power to spread from a single person to thousands in an instant wreaking havoc all around which is why option A will always be the right choice in this case.

Both options lead to death and destruction ultimately, but option A will save more lives in the long term.

Seen several posts here about the vaccine that should be made first before resuming. It makes sense and the best thing to do but providing the timeframe of creating a vaccine against Covid-19 that might take a year(s), is the world can afford to wait for that vaccine?

So what do you think?

I guess it would be better if the vaccine came out first before conducting any such crowded nor even any events that would take people to gather. Most gamblers and even normal people would prefer being safe than being on an event that has no assurance whether the unseen virus would attack. Though it seems to take years to impossible to have a vaccine, yet the fact that most of professionals and even supported by the all country's governments are helping each other to make one, would lessen those impossibilities.

But one thing is for sure, the pandemic thought us to value health more than anything. So better have a patience than to make a "new normal" event.

I tend to agree with you that the virus will continue to spread IF there's no social distancing to be implemented and limit people in one place to avoid crowded. As an OP stated on option B it is a case to case basis, it should no audience and less staff. If the number of cases in Covid19 victims in a graph will show the result of flattening the curve in a place, probably it is a good sign to continue and resume slowly any sports events. There are some places was on GCQ after the ECQ being implemented.

We don't know when the release of the vaccine but we can avoid the virus with high precautionary measures should be implemented, probably it is good to resume the gambling business industry slowly. Generating businesses to continue the revenue is very needed to recover from a possible recession because we are on the economic crisis as of now.

However, all of these are subject to what our government implemented in our place. We should follow the Covid19 protocols.

[Oasisman]

Option B is better specially now that we're temporarily quarantined and going out of your house is very limited, at least it ables to let people stay at their home watching their favorite sports and do online betting.
If we're going to wait for the vaccines, then that will take a lot of time, a year at the very least.

Sports organization should consider to open a single facility were players will stay at the same place for the whole season without going out in order to avoid contacting from the people outside. That way, we can enjoy live sports while getting rid of contracting the virus at the same time.

cant understand why vaccine takes along time to be created when in fact we are now already on a year where we  have the best medical equipments compare on the past  or maybe i am missing out something  .

what if they can create a vaccine in a short period of time  but they refrain to release it for now because they love the situation and they love seeing people suffer like this  . my choice would be letter b anyway  .  we are now have a hard time on here ( limited food and cash )  cant take this life anymore

The world is not ready for the covid-19, until now there is no statement yet that the vaccine will be available soon as no country has said they already found it, it will take time because there's a process that needs to be followed, if we are using one vaccine only from whichever country will process, they need to ensure that it's safe to be use for millions or billions of people in the world.

[bitcoin-shark]

I think that for a possible vaccine it will still take a really long time and it will not be available before the start of the new year, on the other hand the economic losses for the stop of sports, for the matchs not played are huge, in my opinion once all the medical checks where done to the players and ascertained that they are all negative, they could start playing again without the presence of the public

[NavI_027]

No doubt that Option A would be the best thing to do. Continuous quarantine is the key for us to slow the spread of the virus until there will be no new cases recorded. Through this, the eradication of the virus would be a lot easier. However, sad to say but this option seems not feasible for everyone especially for those poor countries because their economy status will fall drastically. And if this happen, worse problems than the virus might happen . That's why I understand if some governments are willing to take the risk (Option B). Hmm, maybe the least thing they can do to avoid anyone's health compromised is to maintain social distancing and strictly implementing rules for the civilians.

[DevilSlayer]

For sure that those sports management will postponed the game and events all over the world especially if the curve of the charts that indicating the persons who having coronavirus are still not flattening. Trump says that the vaccine will be made in the US before the 2020 ends, let us hope that the virus should now be contained and it will not spread anymore. Most of sports are affected because of the virus and of course the Olympics are also postponed and I know that the events and major sports will only continue if the pandemics end or if there will be now a vaccine.

[MFahad]

Most sports events are halted, suspended, postponed, and canceled because of the pandemic virus for about to 1-2 months now. Within that short period, the damage is serious so I can't imagine if it will take a year or over.

Seen several posts here about the vaccine that should be made first before resuming. It makes sense and the best thing to do but providing the timeframe of creating a vaccine against Covid-19 that might take a year(s), is the world can afford to wait for that vaccine?

So what do you think?

a) wait for the vaccine even it will take years, end of the discussion

b) resume slowly with several considerations such as no audience, limited number of staffs or any important things to do before considering resuming, unless the area or place was heavily affected

Since it's almost impossible to expect a vaccine until the end of the year or maybe the 3rd quarter of the next year, I will go with B but with lots of considerations (But I'm hoping I'm wrong. We all want the vaccine and experts around the world are truly working hard for it).

It all depends when is the Vaccine against Covid-19 is discovered or developed. All the sporting organizations can wait for another 2 -3 months for vaccine but if the vaccine is not developed in this time frame, then obviously they have to choose from different options because players and those sporting organization can't remain idle forever.

The average time frame of a cure for a new strain of a virus is 12-18 months and that is the fastest already. Some take more than 2 years to create a cure. Yes there are many scientists around the world right now who is creating virus and some of them are accepted already for clinical trials like the "Remdesivir" vaccine which is right now on trials.

The technology right now is upgraded so there is a possibility that creating a cure for this new strain will take lesser time. I just hope that they can create a vaccine as soon as possible.

a) wait for the vaccine even it will take years, end of the discussion

It will depend on the situation of the country.

We saw USA starting to open some of the establishments for NBA players to train already so at least we some movements coming from the NBA.

Waiting for vaccine before opening is impossible. We saw some of the companies at loss especially in NBA and it is only one month that has passed. What if they will wait for more months or years before re-opening it? Waiting before reopening will greatly affect the economy of the country so I'm against to this.

Letter B is better for me. At least they will start slowly. Having one arena then at that place, all of the games will happen there for indoor games. For outdoor games like soccer or football, I think little to no audience is possible and a limited number of staffs. They will resume it in a place where there are low to no case rate.

They should start planning now because they can't expect a vaccine to be available this year. If they want to resume the sports the they better have a good plan on how to prevent the spread of the virus so the government will look into it and they will be given the approval.  Let's just say that it's the new normal of sports, no crowd because people are just watching on their homes, which is a good alternative then we remain bored as well.

[seleme]

According to WHO the vaccine invention can take from 6 months up to 2 years, it is still under the question the vaccine will be ready after 2 years. The Covid-19 is the current reason why markets decline and gambling business also suffers from a complex situation. I doubt the sports events will be the priority even if the vaccine becomes ready tomorrow.

[bitcoin31]

It's better if corona virus is already gone or everything is clear so people are safe to get that , I know many people are really wants this outbreaks ends so they can watch sports events and activites but we cannot do that because we are preventing spreading the virus to more people so our lives will back to normal after the lockdown better to wait maybe few months before they resume the events.

[btc_angela]

Plan b sound good to me, just put restrictions on it and we are good to go.

I know that fans are part of the sporting events, but for sure we all understand the current situation. And in order for our favourite sports to go on under the Covid-19 pandemic, there should be some trade-off that will affect us.

We can't just wait for the vaccine to be discovered, everyone is eager to see their sports to resume so the best and logical choice is plan b.

In start of March, when the covid-19 was not so severe, we had a few cricket matches of PSL being played in these crowd less stadiums in our country and it was even boring to watch. Match without crowd is as boring as like having no matches at all.

Everybody on earth requires this Virus to end as it has already destructed many economies of the world and billions of people life is already effected due to lockdown or very less sales as consumers itself is not sure if their job would remain in future or how the world could recover and how much time it will take to move back to normal life. This is really a daunting task and hope things get well soon before it becomes too late. Till then be it sports or gambling in casinos etc mostly have gone on hold for the time begin.

Intensity is different since the crowd bring up the spirits in the game and seeing that really make me feel bored to, And I don't think its best to stop all activities for now while the vaccine is not created since we will make things worse and instead the government slowly controlled the incident the number will rise because of this negligence.
