Same cannot be said for people in the US. Yes, but wearing masks is like a little bandage against the bleed, in the end the only really efficient thing is keeping physical distance. I do get the reasoning we're hearing quite often here: "We won't make masks mandatory everywhere yet, because people think with masks, they don't need to keep their distance anymore and so the whole thing only spreads easier." Anyway, glad their protest worked and they can play again, now stay away from other teams please If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Or the match could be played at a neutral location and we can spare the embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
