Sedentary behavior, exercise and COVID-19: immune and metabolic implications in obesity and its comorbidities.
Authors: Methnani J, Amor D, Yousfi N, Bouslama A, Omezzine A, Bouhlel E
Abstract
Many reports showed a dramatic decrease in the levels of physical activity during the current pandemic of SARS-COV-2. This has substantial immune and metabolic implications, especially in those at risk or with metabolic diseases including individuals with obesity and Type 2 diabetes.

The World ’s Sports Stadiums Are Being Converted Into Hospitals to Fight the Coronavirus Outbreak
Around 10 days ago, Danny Zausner, chief operating officer of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City — home of the U.S. Open — received a call that would be considered inconceivable not that long ago. Local government officials wanted to know whether the sprawling 42-acre tennis complex could house a makeshift hospital for COVID-19 patients. The City’s health care system was already taxed, and the crisis was only worsening.
Zausner said officials asked about utilizing Arthur Ashe Stadium, the largest tennis stadium in the world and site of some of the sport’s most memorabl...

Myron Rolle Using Traits Learned As NFL Safety To Fight Coronavirus At Mass General

As you can imagine, he’s been very busy during the coronavirus outbreak.
“I always wanted to be a neurosurgeon,” Rolle said.
But first, he wanted to play football. Rolle was a safety at Florida State while completing pre-med studies. He played three years in the NFL with the Tennessee Titans and Pittsburgh Steelers.

Youth ice hockey COVID-19 protocols and prevention of sport-related transmission
CONCLUSION: This study suggests indoor youth sports can operate safely with appropriate protocols in place, even within communities of high COVID-19 transmission, even when athletes are not yet vaccinated or wearing masks during play. Transmission appears to be more likely in congested indoor areas involving adults than on the ice during play. Protocols should be developed in collaboration with programme participants. Strong collaboration in the interest of youth sports can motivate adoption of protocols which prevent within-team transmission.PMID:34413053 | DOI:10.1136/bjsports-2021-104363
