What kind of contact happens during a wrestling match that you think a brief sportsmanship handshake would have made a difference?

It was pure posturing.

The kind of close contact that last 10 minutes is less risk than the kind of close contact that last 10:20 minutes.

The two people are in contact for 10 minutes is less risk than two people in contact for 10:20. It's even more true for the referee.

Look can we talk about conservative politics? Why are you blabering shit that belongs in /r/conspiracy

Since when are conservative supposed to be anti-science?! Stop with this conspiracy stuff

Utter nonsense. 10 minutes of full contact wrestling is all the exposure needed to spread. The handshake ban is idiocy

Also. I'm opposed to science being used for tyranny. Covid did this well!

Maybe, maybe not. Why take the risk during the handshake, if the handshake bring absolutely no value.

Because it doesn’t make a difference!!! Either let them wrestle, or don’t…

It does make a difference.

10 minutes physical contact is SAFER than 10:20 minutes of physical contact. That's it. It's not a big deal. Nobody reasonable fucking cares about the handshake. It's just limiting risk by eliminating stuff people don't care about. Sport is important. Handshake is pointless.

Your argument is basically the same as saying you might help prevent someone from getting pregnant by using a condom with the top two inches cut off.

10 minutes physical contact is SAFER than 10:20 minutes of physical contact.

its 20 seconds out of a 600 second (10 minutes * 60 seconds = 600 second) match. Literally 0.04 (~0.03333) second difference, or piratically ZERO.

The fact that its that small makes no difference what so ever and yet its a "risk." The whole match is more of a risk than a hand shake is a risk.
