COVID will not disappear after the election. If that was the case and it was just an American thing then why is it all over the world. It's not just old people that get sick. They can stay home and young people can infect them since so many refuse to wear masks and use precautions. Everywhere large gatherings happen there is COVID being spread. They have traced infections from the Sturgis rally to 8 states. University of Alabama has over 500 positive tests in the first week of school. Young people do what they do and that's ignore rules and recommendations and socialize and party. They transmit the disease which gets passed around.
Having said all that I think they will get thru at least the first 4 weeks of the season and hopefully the whole thing. The real test will come when teams start playing games, traveling around the country and staying in hotels. If they adhere to the protocols they might get thru the entire year without any postponements.
