Brighton’s CEO Is Another COVID-19 Fearmonger|opinion

By The Boy -

COVID-19 has taken lives and is scrambling minds. Brighton and Hove Albion chief is the latest fearmonger not to grasp the fundamentals of controlled environments.

“We have got to be careful that we do not misstep here because if we do, it could ruin lives. It could cost lives. And we cannot afford that.”

Belfast Telegraph

The whole point of testing players is to remove the tiny number that might test positive for the Coronavirus. These players are precisely the ones that need to removed from not just the sport but from society.

It would be extremely helpful if people did even a modicum of research before opening their mouths – furthermore – it would be equally useful if journalists were capable of asking lucid questions in the face such unchecked daftness.

We appear to be living through a time whereby few are capable of critical thought and fewer yet are able to digest even the simplest of information before talking about “mixed messages”.

Football cannot be stopped on the basis that uneducated people have taken an uninformed view.

Footballers that have all tested negative cannot infect each other or anyone else. It isn’t scientifically possible.

The ufc was a success last night. One fighter and his corner men tested positive only hours before the event.. The other 23 fighters all good.. All sports should be looking at dana white and the ufc and follow suit. With strict rules and testing they managed just fine.

Greet point. The scientists are largely being ignored in favour of the endless ‘panic p0rn’ being peddled by much of the news channels. Indeed, it’s when people in positions of authority start trotting it out that you really start to wonder.

Exactly, how do you catch it from people who have been tested negative? Also, even if there were a mini outbreak within a squad, the amount of fit young people who get serious symptoms is so tiny that it will not endanger life whatsoever, even if someone slipped through the testing net.

This is a horrible virus but I have round the way it’s been handled even more horrible…

Sorry, I made a mess of copying and pasting the article but It’s easy to find. He’s a great journalist, much underestimated.

I have attached an article on Covid-19 by Peter Hichens in today’s Mail. Worth a read, highly intelligent journalist.

The panic and fear that you see on the likes of MOTD forums is unbelievable. The so called 3 Brighton players who’ve tested positive 2 of whom had it weeks ago but the MOTD headline suggests they all have it now.

Whatever happens at 7pm GMT the MSM will make sure the flat earth brigade of this country will be planning for Armageddon from tomorrow….
