[1] Fitness centers（厳格な対策でリスク増加なし）
情報源 News: Medical, Life sciences 2021年11月22日
BMC Public Health 掲載の研究で，researchers from the University of Oslo oversaw a trial in Norway in which several fitness centers were allowed to open
...
The researchers highlight that their trial shows no increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection in fitness centers with strict enforcements of disease control measures. However, they warn that these measures were strictly enforced in the trial and that less stringent measures might lead to different results. They also highlight that the trial does not test what would happen if the centers opened during the pandemic with no hygienic measures or social distancing.

A modeling study today in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report estimates that 12 000 excess people die 2 weeks after US hospitals reach 75% adult intensive care unit (ICU) occupancy amid COVID-19 pandemic surges, a figure that rises to 80 000 when ICUs are full--which is the case now in many hospitals in multiple US states.
