    Can you catch the coronavirus sparring with headgear ?

    Is it safe to spar in gyms now in this coronavirus epidemic?

    u can catch hte virus if u get too close to someone who has it, wherever u are, gym, pool, shop, house, sparing someone with the virus is high risk with all hte effort and exertion involved

            Of course you can. Then both of you will be expelling respiratory droplets when you punch and breath heavy.

              Stop pretending you can string tangible sentences together!

                if there's testing, you can even do away with masks, if the same people go to your gym.

                Wuhan is pretty much having giant pool parties right now because of constant testing.

                headgears won't protect from possible transmission

                  Hell no that is not safe and you would need to be a fool to spar with anyone unless you were 100% sure they were not a carrier of the virus. Without much testing it is very hard to be sure of this. Lots of boxers has been sick from the virus trying to carry on as if it was business as usual because the virus spreads s easily. I am not trying to be an expert on this but just listen to the news and you will know this yourself.

                    If you could stay 6 feet away from your sparring partner at all times then it would be safe but otherwise no.
