Meanwhile, the 73-year-old governor of Ohio also has COVID and is asymptomatic. Anecdotes work both ways. Bottom line: the disease is hugely variable for various reasons, but neither Xavier Thomas nor Mike DeWine getting COVID changes the larger picture that (1) young people are unlikely to have serious complications, (2) some young people - and some football players - will in fact have serious complications, and (3) all people, young and old, need to STFU and mask up indoors if we want to play football or enjoy life this fall.
