Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said this week that the country is “not ready” for sports to make a return amid the coronavirus pandemic and indicated that leagues should be ready to “go without this sport for this season.”

In an interview with The New York Times published on Monday, Fauci, who is one of top experts leading the White House’s coronavirus task force, said “safety, for the players and for the fans, trumps everything” when it comes to the question of when sporting events will be able to resume in the country.

“If you can’t guarantee safety, then, unfortunately, you’re going to have to bite the bullet and say, ‘We may have to go without this sport for this season,’ ” he continued.

This fauchi guy is the epitome of a long-time government “worker”. What a beyond-his-usefulness loser. No mater what happens he gets his overly large paycheck, benefits and retirement. Has this goof explained the $3.7 million grant to wuhan labs while he was overseeing?

Well they still played baseball during the 1917 and 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic. Go figure.

Supposedly, the Boston Red Sox playing in the 2018 World Series was to blame for 5,000 Boston residence dying from the Spanish Flu in late 2018.

The 1918 college football season was cut in half.

A surprising third wave of Spanish Flu cancelled the last 1919 Stanley Cup final games. No champion was declared.
