Hansen worries that not enough studies have been done to show the true impact of excessive gaming, especially when we were locked down and students were constantly at computers. “The criteria for gaming-use disorder are really modeled after substance-use disorder and gambling disorder,” said Hansen. He’s a professor at Hazelden’s Graduate School and specializes in addictions. I’m gonna go sleep, I gonna go cook because I like to cook a lot,” said Miller. I’ll go out and do a mile run, takes me 10 minutes, or I’ll maybe go out on a walk for an hour or just go a jog,” said junior Dylan Bartley. That became an issue for many of these gamers during distance learning. The club promoted as a healthy way to game while understanding that screen breaks are needed. “People play ‘League of Legends.’ One room is for ‘Dungeons and Dragons.’ There are people who like ‘Minecraft’ and also card games like ‘Magic The Gathering’ or ‘Smash Bros,'” said junior Ben Miller. “We have 60 to 70 students here at Anoka High School.”
“You can meet people who like to play video games,” said senior Alex Purinton.

Health facilities were found to be severely lacking when the second wave of Covid battered India earlier this year.MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) - More than 75% of kids and teenagers play video games, after a recent survey found most played even more during the pandemic. Preparedness of health infrastructure including the availability of ICU, Oxygen beds, ventilators, etc., with a focus on rural areas and pediatric cases have been advised. The Centre has also advised continued monitoring of areas where recent clusters of positive cases have emerged and promptly send all positive samples for genome sequencing to the INSACOG network. Strengthening testing infrastructure, strict implementation of testing guidelines, and maintaining a healthy ratio of RT-PCR tests, which has been found to be more effective in detection, have been advised. The "Test, Track, Treat, Vaccinate" strategy was reemphasised. States have also been advised to ramp up testing as the 'Omicron' variant reportedly can't escape RT-PCR and Rapid Antigen Tests that have been used to detect Covid so far. States have been advised to not let their guards down and keep a strict vigil on the international passengers coming to the country through various airports, ports, and land border crossings. Passengers from "at-risk" countries are being advised to prepare to wait at the airports till their results are out. The list of countries deemed "at-risk" for now includes the United Kingdom, all 44 countries in Europe, South Africa, Brazil, Bangladesh, Botswana, China, Mauritius, New Zealand, Zimbabwe, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Israel. States will then undertake contact tracing of these positive individuals and follow up for 14 days. If found positive for the virus, passengers will be isolated and treated, and their samples will immediately be sent to the INSACOG Labs network, a multi-laboratory, multi-agency, pan-India network set up by the government to monitor genomic variations in the SARS-CoV-2, for genome sequencing to determine the strain of the virus. State officials will physically visit their homes to ensure effective home isolation. If found negative, they will undergo a seven-day home quarantine and be re-tested on the 8th day. Passengers from "at-risk" countries will be tested for Covid on arrival and can't leave the airport till their RT-PCR test results are available.
