Yes my gf has covid she contracted it at our gym , she only does barbell training as she plays soccer and cheerleads .This whole month she literally only went to the gym and my house and I'm off from work I train with her . She starts her junior year in 1 week and now may have to wait until October , she has worked very hard with hopes of a state hs title but now this covid crap has ruined her hopes and it deeply saddens me .Her doctor said he has seen many cases from all ages that train since our states gyms opened . She's tough though and won't stop training she feels very fresh and I'm sticking with her no matter what .
Victoria's "tinfoil hat-wearing" brigade has been savaged for planning an anti-lockdown protest in Melbourne.
A 76-year-old Windsor man has been arrested and charged with incitement after a police investigation into the planned 5 September rally.
Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius said the rally was set up to protest Melbourne Stage 4 restrictions among other things.
"Participating in this proposed protest would be a serious and blatant breach of the chief health officer's directions and it jeopardises the health of the entire community," he told reporters.
Mr Cornelius said the protest carried a serious risk of undoing the hard work of the vast majority of Victorians.
"The tinfoil hat-wearing brigade are alive and well in our community," he told reporters on Friday.
"They're taking every opportunity to leverage the current situation to serve their own ridiculous notions about so-called sovereign citizens, about constitutional issues and about how 5G is going to kill your grandkids.
"It's bats*** crazy nonsense."

I think your too focused on trivial nonsense , I spent important time sharing my girlfriend's struggle with covid and the strength of our love .You have not even acknowledged my post yet narcissisticly retrieve fake news to make you appear important or trustworthy .Why not focus on hope and what good people are doing to combat covid . I find your lack of caring very disturbing and truly ignorant . I urge you to look inside your insecure arrogant soul and find light .
BOSTON—Addressing a precipitous nationwide decline in bicep circumference, pectoral definition, and rigid, beautifully cut abs, panicked officials in every state announced Thursday they would immediately reopen gyms following a catastrophic 85 percent drop in chiseled studs across the country.
“Cutting off access to free-weight stations and circuit-training machines as the nation’s gorgeously sculpted male physiques atrophy before our eyes would not only represent a failure of leadership, but would almost certainly lead to a full-blown shortage of grade-A American beefcake,” Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker wrote in a statement endorsed by all 50 governors, adding that even with the immediate reopening of fitness centers, it could take years for the now-lumpy U.S. populace to replenish the once-bountiful supplies of eye candy lost over the past three months.
“From the muscle beaches of this nation’s shores to the CrossFit classes of Main Street, hard bodies that once wouldn’t quit are now softening at alarming rates.
We don’t want to survive this epidemic only to find ourselves completely deprived of really top-notch, primo displays of manflesh.
Every day that gyms remain closed, the hunkiest, most jacked specimens among us deflate a bit more.
This nightmare ends today.” At press time, Baker was overheard lamenting the fact that he could no longer bounce a quarter off the ass of any of his constituents.
Population-Level COVID-19 Mortality Risk for Non-Elderly Individuals Overall and For Non-Elderly Individuals Without Underlying Diseases in Pandemic Epicenters
Highlights
· People <65 years old have 16–100 fold lower risk of COVID-19 deaths than older people.
· Age risk gradients are less steep in India and Mexico.
· Absolute risks of COVID-19 in the population are low for people <65 years old.
· COVID-19 deaths occur sparsely in people <65 without underlying conditions.
Objective: To provide estimates of the relative rate of COVID-19 death in people <65 years old versus older individuals in the general population, the absolute risk of COVID-19 death at the population level during the first epidemic wave, and the proportion of COVID-19 deaths in non-elderly people without underlying diseases in epicenters of the pandemic.
Eligible data: Cross-sectional survey of countries and US states with at least 800 COVID-19 deaths as of April 24, 2020 and with information on the number of deaths in people with age <65. Data were available for 14 countries (Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK) and 13 US states (California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania). We also examined available data on COVID-19 deaths in people with age <65 and no underlying diseases.
Main outcome measures: Proportion of COVID-19 deaths in people <65 years old; relative mortality rate of COVID-19 death in people <65 versus ≥65 years old; absolute risk of COVID-19 death in people <65 and in those ≥80 years old in the general population as of June 17, 2020; absolute COVID-19 mortality rate expressed as equivalent of mortality rate from driving a motor vehicle.
Results: Individuals with age <65 account for 4.5-11.2% of all COVID-19 deaths in European countries and Canada, 8.3-22.7% in the US locations, and were the majority in India and Mexico.
People <65 years old had 30- to 100-fold lower risk of COVID-19 death than those ≥65 years old in 11 European countries and Canada, 16- to 52-fold lower risk in US locations, and less than 10-fold in India and Mexico.
The absolute risk of COVID-19 death as of June 17, 2020 for people <65 years old in high-income countries ranged from 10 (Germany) to 349 per million (New Jersey) and it was 5 per million in India and 96 per million in Mexico.
The absolute risk of COVID-19 death for people ≥80 years old ranged from 0.6 (Florida) to 17.5 per thousand (Connecticut).
The COVID-19 mortality rate in people <65 years old during the period of fatalities from the epidemic was equivalent to the mortality rate from driving between 4 and 82 miles per day for 13 countries and 5 states, and was higher (equivalent to the mortality rate from driving 106-483 miles per day) for 8 other states and the UK.
People <65 years old without underlying predisposing conditions accounted for only 0.7-3.6% of all COVID-19 deaths in France, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, Georgia, and New York City and 17.7% in Mexico.
Conclusions: People <65 years old have very small risks of COVID-19 death even in pandemic epicenters and deaths for people <65 years without underlying predisposing conditions are remarkably uncommon. Strategies focusing specifically on protecting high-risk elderly individuals should be considered in managing the pandemic.

In a lot of ways, the 5K I ran on Saturday was like any other race: The tall, skinny guys zipped out front, fast. Spectators rang cowbells. I heard the “Rocky” theme twice along the course.
Except the spectators were naked. And I was, too.
That’s because the race was the Bouncing Buns Clothing Optional 5K, held at the Sunny Rest Resort, a nudist resort in Palmerton, Pa.
“Not enough of us do things outside the box anymore, particularly as we get older,” said Ron Horn, race director and co-owner of Pretzel City Sports, which put on the race.
I’ve run a handful of Pretzel City’s clothed (or as naked runners call them, “textile”) races, but the nude events never appealed to me, not when there were a zillion other races to run.
But this year, it caught my attention in part because almost all other races have been canceled because of the coronavirus. In this pandemic season of covering our faces in public, why not uncover everything else? What a fun way to experience some freedom in a time of pressing fear, grief, restrictions and disappointments.

[OA] A Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Patient With Bilateral Orchitis: A Case Report
During the development of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2), a myriad of complications has emerged and although rare, several genitourinary complications have been reported. The bulk of these complications have been secondary to hypercoagulable states, such as priapism.
Previous SARS family infections have caused orchitis, though no adult cases of orchitis have been reported. We describe a novel case of SARS-CoV2 bilateral orchitis in a previously healthy 37-year-old male who presented for testicular pain with constitutional symptoms. Additionally, there was no epididymitis associated with the bilateral orchitis.
Based on both data in SARS-CoV2 infected males and previous data from prior SARS infections, spermatocyte function may be compromised secondary to this infection. With the various symptoms associated with this virulent pathogen, we characterize the potential complications and importance of fertility follow up.

Hmm, so we’ve been played for fools eh? Lol. Well, only those who bought this bullshit.
CDC: 94% of COVID-19 deaths had underlying medical conditions
