What is Two‐Minute Drill about?

## Fans in stands would spread COVID-19, according to mathematical models If small college towns were to hold sporting events with fans in the stands, they'd likely see an increase in COVID-19 cases, according to conservative epidemiological modeling from Washington State University. A WSU research team created a series of mathematical models that found in-person sports like football and basketball games increased COVID-19 cases among students by 25% at best or up to 822% in the worst-case scenario. The worst spike would happen in a scenario where a college town had controlled its outbreak very well but an influx of visitors from areas with higher COVID-19 infection rates came to town for the game. The effect of a sporting event in a small town, which brings in visitors who often stay for a weekend and fill up the town, would be more dramatic than one held in a big city, according to the researchers. ■
