Sports fans appear to be set on waiting until a coronavirus vaccine is developed before returning to in-person events, a poll published by Seton Hall on Thursday said.
Per Seton Hall's results, respondents were asked what they would do if the leagues resumed play before the development of a vaccine. 72% of them said they would not attend games, with 12% saying they would if social distancing could be maintained. Only 13% said they would feel safe attending just as they had in the past.
When respondents classified as "sports fans" answered the aforementioned question, 61% said they would not attend games before a vaccine was developed.
