Not knowing who's gonna play or not is a big disadvantage for us sports bettors and frustrating to a basketball fan that wants to watch the PBA live as may be disappointed being in the arena but not seeing the players they wants to watch as they are out because of injury, that is why they have to be transparent with player's injury IMO.
With NCR reverted back to alert level 3, anyone knows what changes the PBA would make to continue this season?
I mean researchers already said that Omicron has a faster spreading rate than Delta and we saw what Delta Variant did - a peak of 20,000 cases daily. Add more the fact that the immune protection of the person getting vaccinated decreases if they got the Omicron variant and only increases by booster shots.
I'm thinking that they might enter the bubble again (hope not). Best scenario is that they will decrease the capacity the arena accepts and they will still continue what they are doing. They might become stricter and those only with booster shots are the ones who can enter the arena but this is in the future since the number of people who got booster shots right now is very low still and most of them are health workers. Hope this quick surge of cases and the alert level 3 of the NCR will not affect the PBA.
