“…If a patient has had COVID‐19, they should resume exercise gradually. We support and encourage activity around the house to prevent thrombosis; best evidence suggests waiting 2 to 3 weeks to gradually resume exercise if someone has had pulmonary or cardiac symptoms associated with their COVID‐19 infection 31 …”

Older adults have been markedly impacted by the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID‐19) pandemic. The American Geriatrics Society previously published a White Paper on Healthy Aging in 2018 that focused on a number of domains that are core to healthy aging in older adults: health promotion, injury prevention, and managing chronic conditions; cognitive health; physical health; mental health; and social health. The potentially devastating consequences of COVID‐19 on health promotion are recognized. The purpose of this article is multifold. First, members of the Healthy Aging Special Interest Group will present the significant difficulties and obstacles faced by older adults during this unprecedented time. Second, we provide guidance to practicing geriatrics healthcare professionals overseeing the care of older adults. We provide a framework for clinical evaluation and screening related to the five aforementioned domains that uniquely impact older adults. Last, we provide strategies that could enhance healthy aging in the era of COVID‐19.

“…The long-term respiratory consequences are not yet completely known, but may be long-lasting [21]. As the disease spectrum caused by COVID-19 varies from asymptomatic disease to major long-term complications, it is impossible to predict the appropriate moment to return to sporting activities [22,23]. Only one report has suggested guidelines on how to perform physical testing and return to sports after COVID-19.…”

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic suspended nearly all team sports globally. The pro series have resumed playing by creating safe bubbles or massive testing protocols. Amateur level sports have also restarted seasons without possibility for such precautions. Our aim was to report the epidemiology of COVID-19 in an amateur ice hockey team and the team-toteam transmission during two games. Methods: A descriptive brief report based on public statements by the local health authorities and the teams involved. Results: An asymptomatic carrier of COVID-19 in a U-20 ice hockey team infected 22 of 28 team mates. The day before the first players had symptoms, the team had returned from a two games away trip. A few days later COVID-19 was detected in both opposing teams and they were ordered to quarantine. During the two weeks quarantine a total of 24 players from the two opposing teams tested positive. Some of these players were training with senior teams and three additional infected players were detected in two senior teams. In total, 49 infections were detected in five ice hockey teams, and six teams were in quarantine for two weeks. Conclusion: An asymptomatic player can potentially endanger the whole season of a team and put opponents in danger as well. We report massive team-to-team transmission of COVID-19 in the U-20 Finnish National Hockey League. In order to prevent spread of COVID-19 in amateur-level team sports, suitable protocols should be established and adopted into daily use.

“…La mayoría de los casos de COVID-19 son de categoría leve y moderada, con duración de síntomas menor a seis semanas 40 , y se deberá reiniciar la actividad física una vez sea posible, para evitar efectos adversos del sedentarismo. Existe una amplia variación en la expresión del padecimiento y cada persona se recupera a un ritmo distinto 41 .…”

“…El cuadro clínico moderado por COVID-19 puede durar hasta seis semanas, se caracteriza, además de los síntomas clásicos, por exacerbación del grado de disnea, fiebre persistente, tos y taquicardia ante leve actividad física, reportados entre los días 5 y 8 de iniciado el cuadro 40 ; esto está causado por la mayor inflamación del parénquima pulmonar, pero sin llegar a presentar neumonía. El momento recomendado para el inicio del ejercicio es a siete días después de la resolución total de los síntomas 44 .…”

La enfermedad por coronavirus 2019 fue declarada pandemia el 11 de marzo de 2020; una consecuencia ha sido el incremento en el sedentarismo y la reducción de la actividad deportiva. El ejercicio beneficia el sistema inmunitario de defensa, especialmente en adultos mayores. Se recomienda guardar distancia de 1.5 metros entre personas, y si se realiza caminata o trote, el espacio debe ser de hasta 5 y 10 metros respectivamente. Los casos reportados son en su mayoría leves hasta en un 80%, y pueden ser críticos hasta en 4.7%; los factores de riesgo son bien conocidos: hipertensión, diabetes y enfermedad cardiaca previa. Los casos graves o críticos se presentan como cuadros de síndrome de distrés respiratorio agudo y ante afección cardiovascular cursan principalmente como miopericarditis, síndromes coronarios agudos, choque cardiogénico y eventos trombóticos, entre otros. El ejercicio después de la recuperación de infección por coronavirus 2 del síndrome respiratorio agudo grave (SARS-CoV-2) siempre está recomendado, sin embargo, dependerá del cuadro clínico qué medidas se deben tomar previo a su inicio, y es en casos moderados y especialmente en los graves donde la evaluación y prescripción previa al retorno al ejercicio o deporte debe ser guiada por personal médico experto en rehabilitación cardiopulmonar, en especial en deportistas.
