Santa Clara County should carefully consider whether to proceed. Of course, Stanford wants the money and the football players don’t want to miss their season, but there are many reasons to be hesitant. The nature of football doesn’t permit public health safety protocols to be followed. The largest contact tracing study of coronavirus in the world (for a region in India, conducted by a professor with joint appointments at Princeton and an Indian university) was just released and finds that 20-45 year olds are responsible for most of the spread. Playing football is not an essential activity. Given that we are headed into flu season and Gov Newsom is pointing to some warning signs indicating upcoming increases in coronavirus in California (as national health experts are saying the same thing regarding the nation), it seems just as crazy to have Stanford play football as it would be to open Disneyland.

And yet, Sara Cody had no problem allowing the 49ers to practice and play. And this was when the county was in the purple group.
The state has released guidelines for college football to proceed.

I know Cody wants to maintain her stranglehold on the county, but a person that has not missed a big paycheck all these months should not be dictating to county residents.

And take note that San Jose State has told the county health what they think of their demands- they are moving to Humboldt county to practice.

Must be, as Trump says, FAKE NEWS.
