You do realize that I'm a Pediatrician and am quite knowledgeable about the transmission of respiratory viruses, correct?

No, I did not realize that for one second, and could give a damn.

If he’s wrong the why don’t we all take our flu shots in July ?

Then you should know that respiratory illness can start easier in cold weather.

Stay home and yell at the sky.

For the love of God. It's an outdoor venue, and it's going to be like 35 degrees.

I haven't checked, is everyone in Canada dead yet?

Double mask, grow a set, and go watch football.

If you get colds or flu easily sit in your warm home.

Or if your tallywhacker ever had the frost bite from exposure to extreme cold, my advice would be to sit this one out.

Because people congregate indoors when it's cold, travel/fly more around the holidays, and colds/flu are transmitted by these little particles called viruses that are spread in close proximity.

PSA, for those going: bring a toboggan that covers your ears. That wind might get you a nasty ear infection.

It’s common sense 101. Perhaps you didn’t take it in med school.

Actually, folk lore is not part of the curriculum. I did ace my infectious disease and immunology classes though.

Thanks, chief.

Hockey fans would love this thread.

And when the weather is hot in the summer time people congregate indoors also. Viruses have an easier time getting through our defenses in cold weather .

Then hunker down, bud. They literally plow snow to the sidelines in Green Bay and Buffalo for football games, yet the fans pack the stadiums shirtless to cheer on their teams.

The thought of people avoiding an outdoor football game in 35-40 degree weather for fear of catching a cold/flu is clear evidence of how soft we have become. Farmers, construction workers, utility personnel, etc work all winter outdoors.

There's a word for this kind of avoidance of certain situations, but it's not appropriate for this forum.

What do you mean “the name checks out”

I’m Chief not bud. Stupid, shirtless yankees prove nothing. I raise cattle for a living and work outside everyday the lord sends me. You may be soft but I’ve never been accused of it. I’ve had the flu several times in my 69 years and it was always in the winter. That’s all I have on this matter.

I never said I was in medical school. I only posted a simple statement that is common sense and but a few want to ridicule me…That is fine, if it makes their day to be a jackass and feel superior to me I can handle it.

 

[Big Orange Captain]

I hate how this is being played on a freaking Tuesday in the middle of the work day.

I always take vacation the week after christmas

how could it in freezing weather?

 

[NighthawkVol]

Good lesson to learn for the team that if you lose games you shouldn’t, you get to play on a crap day, in a non tropical location.

To be fair, Nashville was tropical a few days ago.

This is Scully. She faces the TV but naps like an old man during games.

Scully looks like she has a tough life.

(I firmly believe that all dogs, cats, and other pets should be spoiled rotten )

 

[unfrozencvmanvol]

I'll be watching at home with cat.

Or possibly a llama?

I am firmly a dog person. House cats would eat us without a second thought if they were a bit bigger.
