Dr. Carlos del Rio, an infectious disease specialist at Emory University and member of the NCAA’s COVID-19 advisory panel, discussing fall sports.

"I feel like the Titanic. We have hit the iceberg and we’re trying to make a decision of what time we should have the band play."
"We need to focus on what’s important. What’s important is we should control this virus. Not having fall sports this year in controlling this virus should be the No. 1 priority for me."
Del Rio said he hoped to see 10 new cases per 100,000 people before restarting sports, etc. "If we can get down there, lots of things can happen. Lots of things."
