Not attacking you, Gigi, and hope you don't take it that way. I just think it's hard for people in areas that haven't seen much impact to understand what's going on and what the risks are. I'm not in NYC, but many of my students are, and it's been a very horrible last few weeks for our campus community. I see those videos of beaches and it makes me very anxious and sad.
But I stand by what I've said about gym. I think the majority of people will behave sensibly, but it only takes a few irresponsible people to wreck things. I'd guess we can all name a few families in our respective gyms whom we know would send a sick child to practice. And I can't help thinking about kids going to fall meets and mingling with kids from all over their respective areas, some of whom might be from cautious gyms and some not. The reality is that we are all only as protected as the least protected among us.
