I fear this may turn political, but I wanted to share this as we are now in a unique situation as a society to begin looking at this virus empirically. I remember one of the main reasons for the B1Gs decision to cancel the season had to do with the unknowns of COVID's effects on the heart tissue of their athletes. I hope this study, along with any other studies that've resulted from the effects of COVID, can be used to assess needs going into next season. 

If you haven't read the article, I've posted a link below.
