I didn't realize Eduardo Rodriguez couldn't even go for a walk since having Covid-19 in March


Red Sox received “really good news” regarding the health of Rodriguez. He’s been cleared to start walking in a couple of weeks and will work his way up toward walking on a treadmill. The team is hoping that he’ll have a normal offseason to build himself up for the start of next season.

There’s a lot to unpack from this news but the first thing that springs to mind is that the update drills home the severity of his condition. I’m done hearing from the crowd claiming that COVID-19 is only dangerous to old people in nursing homes. Rodriguez is a 27-year-old professional athlete in otherwise healthy condition who still hasn’t been medically cleared to go for a WALK months after battling this virus.
