I can see them running Indy in August, not a chance in hell they have fans in the stands for it.

Indiana's current reopening timeline (subject to change) should allow some fans into IMS starting July 4th:

quote:

Our goal is to have all areas of the state reach Stage 5 beginning July 4th. Even in Stage 5 we will continue to do social distancing, but conventions, sports events, fairs, festivals, state fair and like events may resume and remote work will be optional. Retail stores, malls, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, gyms and personal services may operate at full capacity. Restrictions will be lifted at amusement parks, water parks and like facilities. At this time, we will decide how to approach the next school year. So, Hoosiers, this is our 5-Stage plan to get Indiana back on track. It’s a methodical, step-by-step plan for steady progress which we’ll carefully monitor. You can read more about this at BackOnTrack.in.gov.

Alonso just edged out Button in the first Legends race. Mario qualified poorly and was lapped, but kept pace with the top pair for a long time.

Reverse grid race coming up.

And Alonso also took the second race over Tiago Monteiro. Castroneves, Button, and David Brabham rounded out the top 5.

No fans at IMS July 4th weekend:

quote:

While the State of Indiana plans to enter Stage 5 of its “Back on Track Indiana” plan on July 4, opening sporting events to fans with social distancing, Marion County – home to IMS – moved to Stage 3 ten days after the rest of the state, and we cannot be confident that it will be ready to move to Stage 5 by the holiday weekend. This approach follows national trends for larger communities, and we must follow those guidelines and the leadership and judgement of our city and state officials during this challenging time.

IMS posted:

the issuance and required use of masks, distribution of hand sanitizer to all who enter

This will cut down on the crowds by driving away people who want to avoid all that rigmarole, but it probably won't be of much help in directly reducing the spread of viral infection:

https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/5/19-0994_article

quote:

Here, we review the evidence base on the effectiveness of nonpharmaceutical personal protective measures and environmental hygiene measures in nonhealthcare settings and discuss their potential inclusion in pandemic plans. Although mechanistic studies support the potential effect of hand hygiene or face masks, evidence from 14 randomized controlled trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

quote:

Disposable medical masks (also known as surgical masks) are loose-fitting devices that were designed to be worn by medical personnel to protect accidental contamination of patient wounds, and to protect the wearer against splashes or sprays of bodily fluids (36). There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure. Our systematic review found no significant effect of face masks on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

quote:

However, results from our meta-analysis on RCTs did not provide evidence to support a protective effect of hand hygiene against transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

That seems to run counter to the Missouri Salon trace that the CDC published last week

Something about the wwwnc host and all the studies being published by international researchers makes me go hmmmmm on that whole EID page.

That is one isolated case, with several caveats:

quote:

The findings in this report are subject to at least four limitations. First, whereas the health department monitored all exposed clients for signs and symptoms of COVID-19, and no clients developed symptoms, only a subset was tested; thus, asymptomatic clients could have been missed. Similarly, with a viral incubation period of 2–14 days, any COVID-19 PCR tests obtained from clients too early in their course of infection could return false-negative results. To help mitigate this possibility, all exposed clients were offered testing on day 5 and were contacted daily to monitor for symptoms until day 14. Second, although the health department obtained supplementary data, no information was collected regarding underlying medical conditions or use of other personal protective measures, such as gloves and hand hygiene, which could have influenced risk for infection. Third, viral shedding is at its highest during the 2 to 3 days before symptom onset; any clients who interacted with the stylists before they became symptomatic were not recruited for contact tracing. Finally, the mode of interaction between stylist and client might have limited the potential for exposure to the virus. Services at salon A were limited to haircuts, facial hair trimmings, and perms. Most stylists cut hair while clients are facing away from them, which might have also limited transmission.

The meta-study I linked to does admit "Most studies were underpowered because of limited sample size, and some studies also reported suboptimal adherence in the face mask group.". The rest of its language sounds confident, though.

The EID page is legit, by the way - here it is being linked to from the CDC main site.
