It is being super blown out of proportion. I had covid, had a slight sniffle. The chances of dying from Covid-19 are extremely low. The highest chance of death is in the elderly and that is only 6%.

Man.... apparently now, hundreds of participants and spectators in the World Championship are being tested in a facility backed up with hundreds of appointments..... F in chat for respect for Hikaru. But hey, He's gonna stream still! At least, I hope he will....
