With that in mind and basing my opinion mostly on counties outside of the USA who really do not care what our leaders say....I would not let a doctor give me Hyrdoxy Chloroquine if I tested positive for Covid-19. There is a chance I would consider it if I went to the ICU (if things were getting desperate). I do not like the problems studies in other countries were showing which were so bad they stopped the studies.
I have seen equally reputable reports from doctors about asthma medication as Hyrdoxy Chloroquine. I do not distrust doctors and their experience with their patients...but that is not science.Last edited by Hadez; 07-30-2020, 12:15 PM.Time to build on the win and grow the team from some solid play higher level of play

An article about the Broncos and what they are doing
https://www.9news.com/article/sports...6-b1a03f0f593c
Author: Mike Klis
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — For training camp starters, the Broncos’ 80 players will dress in two locker rooms.
About two-thirds will set up at least 6 feet apart in the regular locker room at the team’s UCHealth Training Center headquarters. The rest will dress two practice fields away in the Pat Bowlen Fieldhouse.
No wait. That wasn’t the start. Before the players entered the team facilities, they were administered the COVID-19 test in a vacant racquetball court building – what had been the 9NEWS studio at Dove Valley. Players also have to answer a screening questionnaire related to COVID-19.
No wait. That wasn’t the start. Before Broncos training camp commenced in various stages -- rookies, quarterbacks and rehabbing injured veterans started taking physicals Monday and veteran players reported for COVID-19 testing Tuesday -- the place was thoroughly cleaned out. Fumigated. Broncos headquarters was closed to all personnel – including general manager John Elway, head coach Vic Fangio and all other coaches, executives, and staff employees – last Tuesday and Wednesday so the facilities could undergo a deep cleaning, sanitation and disinfection service.

In an attempt to make their facilities as safe as possible for their players, coaches and personnel against the threat of coronavirus, the Broncos are leaving no crevice in the deepest corners unattended.
When Brittany Bowlen was hired by the Broncos as senior vice president of strategic initiatives in early December, skeptics may have thought her title superfluous, an abstract placeholder until she was deemed ready to replace her late father Pat Bowlen as the team’s controlling owner.
Then came the worldwide spread of the deadly coronavirus in mid-March. Brittany Bowlen was assigned to head the team’s COVID-19 task force. She put together a 32-page, 10,000-plus word Infectious Disease Emergency Response report that is both comprehensively detailed yet concise and easy to understand. It covers every nook, cranny and scenario in ensuring the Broncos have a safe training camp environment.
“The Broncos sent their plan to the NFLPA,’’ said kicker and player rep Brandon McManus, “and they said it was one of the better ones.”
The team’s Infectious Disease Emergency Response (IDER) plan has been approved by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and was one of the first among the 32 teams to be accepted by the league and players union.
Among the safeguards and protocols the Broncos are to follow not only during training camp, but throughout the 2020 season:
Meeting rooms
The team is to make sure the meeting rooms are cleaned and disinfected before and after each use.
Players will sit 6 feet apart.
Full team meetings will be held in the spacious Pat Bowlen Fieldhouse.
Weight room building
A limited number of players and coaches from Loren Landow’s strength and conditioning staff can be in the weight facility at one time.
The facility is to be cleaned and disinfected before and after each use.
A fogging application will be administered each night.
Cafeteria
Players will eat in two shifts.
All cafeteria personnel must wear masks and gloves at all times.
There will no longer be a buffet setup. Instead players will place their orders to servers standing behind plexiglass-protected food stations.
The snack bar station also will have a server to hand over such orders as water, Gatorade, coffee, protein shakes, yogurt and other snacks.
Each night, a fogging application will be administered to all tables, seats and food-serving surfaces.
Off-site accommodations
No player will be required to stay at a team hotel. If a player needs to stay at hotel (usually rookies), one will be provided. The hotel will be cleaned, sanitized and disinfected on a daily basis per COVID-19 regulations.
Locker rooms
The custodial staff will clean and disinfect high-touch areas three times a day.
Lockers and shower heads will be spaced at least 6 feet apart. A limited number of players can shower at one time. Every other shower head has been disabled.
Fogging applications will be administered while the team is on the practice field and again each night.Last edited by Hadez; 07-30-2020, 12:39 PM.Time to build on the win and grow the team from some solid play higher level of play

It’s Bills rookies this week. What happens when it’s the Buccaneers or Raiders vets in two weeks? You just shut the whole thing down for that team?sigpic

The Blue Jays (for example) are still upgrading their affiliate field - Buffalo, to be their home team as a result of Canada's wise refusal to allow teams from coming and going. Now The Jays are missing one or more games against The Phillies because of virus affected staff members of that team, as a result of The Marlins visit. And when the Buffalo stadium is expected to be ready, The Jays are scheduled to play The Marlins. That might be in jeopardy.
Throw in some injuries and more virus related issues, and the season soon becomes an obstacle course.
Having said that, I believe The NHL and possibly The NBA have got this right so far. Time will tell.
The NFL must learn from everything going on, otherwise they will have failed to appreciate the time and learning that should work in their favour.
