    • The question that should be asked is "Who's dying from covid19 since the beginning of the pandemic."ApeRobot

    • Phan, nothing came up. Only retired athletes... any other links? I don’t give google enough to work with algorithm wise, so maybe yours would show somethingtoemaas
    • I think think too many people at top physical fitness did die from it. Some got really ill, some have long covid. But it doesn't seem like a lot of deaths.PhanLo

    • have access to the best doctors and treatments in the world. Plus they're fit and bad cases of covid tends to target the obese._niko
    • I mean all sports in the world - Football, Football (American), Baseball, basketball and all others that get paid high sums to perform.toemaas
    • Yeah, same thing with NASCAR - not athletes. I've ran 3 marathons and 10s of thousands of people I did it with were not athletes, hahatoemaas
