If teams are following "social distancing" protocol, not all athletes will be allowed to be in the training room and weight room at the same time. Plus, everything will have to be wiped down after each use. Team meetings, if any, will be held with players separated from each other.
Or, to keep it simple, just suspend everything until the "all clear" sign is given.

I hope all people of Hawaii are doing all right, being on a island poses it own challenging problems with this sad situation we all find our selves in.

Spring sports being “off” means no official practice sessions I believe but I’m sure someone will set something unofficially. You can make the argument the teams who are unofficially working out hard now are setting themselves up for a stronger fall.
Short term Hawai’i is fine. Not many cases. Long long term, there could be a supply chain issue.

Hopefully, what I am reading, and viewing, that this Coronavirus pandemic is going to last for over 18 months. That would put an end to the 2020 & 2021 Athletic seasons.

It might take 18 months for life to return as normal (esp. given the economy), but Pandemics rarely take that long. Everyone either has it and recovered or is dead.
I did read that because everyone is quarantining now we aren't building up herd immunity as fast (the Britain strategy to just let everyone get it), so more people may get it in the long run as a result of early quarantine.

My guess is that it's roughly about the time it takes for a test vaccine to undergo clinical trials, receive FDA approval, endure other legal hurdles before it can be released out to the public via hospitals/clinics. At least one vaccine is currently in the clinical trial phase. I sure hope it doesn't take this long....so disruptive to our way of life.

One reason the UK abandoned that strategy is that, according to data from China (no where else has been dealing with this long enough to have reinfection) there may be no immunity, as is the case with other single strand RNA viruses, such as colds. One paper put the reinfection rate, based on the Chinese figures, as high as 14%. The other reason the UK abandoned their initial course of action was that, according to modeling done by researchers at Imperial College London, the herd immunity plan could lead to 260,000 deaths this year. The social distancing one was projected to result in 20,000. Adopting pushing for herd immunity when we don't even know if it's possible would be negligent in the extreme.

Do you guys follow the news or what? President Donald Trump have “waived “ that requirement of 12-18 months and is currently urging those who make these vaccine to work finding one soon. I don’t think it will take that long. Everybody in the medical field is now focusing on this first so there bound to be somebody who will find one.
This does not include other free countries like Israel, Australia and many other who are also working feverishly for a vaccine. This is a worldwide pandemic so everyone is working as one.
