2021 Covid Protocols in the NFL

[hoosier]

Why should anyone care if someone who can vaccinate refuses to do so? First, because the unvaccinated are more likely to spread the virus to others, some of whom might be unvaccinated but not by choice. And because unchecked spread of virus increases chances of further mutations that may prove refractory to current vaccines. Do you think schools should be forbidden from requiring that students be up to date on chicken pox, mumps, TB and DTP? Wait, don't answer that.

Yeah no one answer that, or it’s going to be two weeks until you can respond.

Let’s stay on track with this thread or we can go the other way.

sorry mad, I was just asking questions based on the entirely non political assertions of other posters. They must be entirely non political because you didn't step in until I started asking questions. The question is the political part I guess, not the assertion.

Source?

How many sources do you want listed? Do me a favor and just google the COVID stats and you will find many state and federal sources showing that 99% of our COVID problem is due to unvaccinated people.

[Sparkey]

Check Please!

I was telling Hoosier because he was bringing up school which has nothing to do with how it affect football and is just asking to derail this thread.

You have actually been doing very well. I understand this is a tricky subject but it does have NFL ties so hoping everyone can discuss it.

Washington Football Team coach Ron Rivera described himself as "beyond frustrated" Tuesday with the COVID-19 vaccination rate on his team.

While nearly half the league has reached a 90 percent vaccination rate among players, Rivera would only say Tuesday that his club is over 50 percent.

"I think it's frustrating. Especially in the fact that last year we were the No. 1 team against COVID," Rivera said. "Our players took the challenge of staying inside the bubble, doing the things the right way and for the most part, you know we only had two situations. Both of them were guys who weren't on the active 53, so it turned out to be a positive for us, as far as being COVID free. And now for whatever reason we have some reluctance to do that, to get the vaccine."

FWIW, Gute sounded pretty upbeat about how the Packers are doing, although he didn't give any numbers. Yesterday, Wisconsin had its highest number of new cases since mid-April, so the issue isn't going away.

We can not. That is my point. There is a mountain of disinformation in this thread, but if I address it properly all hell breaks loose. This is a political discussion. Data out of the UK and Israel vary greatly from the 99% number our media loves to repeat. That number has no bearing in any data presented. This thread is only "non political" because those of us who have a certain view aren't allowed to refute stupid false talking points, but those of another certain view are allowed to spew them endlessly. This is what some want. The ability to spout a certain viewpoint, while silencing the other side. If anyone disputes the claims made by several posters in this thread about the vaccine WE are the ones being political.

This entire thread is a circle jerk of disinformation, but hey, keep telling your self its football related.

Andrew Brandt on what it means. Last seven minutes. The whole interview is good too.

I’ve slogged through the entire thread. Just a couple of points:

1. Coronus vaccines have been developed and distributed for a couple of decades.

2. Use the Google to understand Monoclonal RNA technology.

3. For generations “culling of the herd” is what keeps us ahead of the game.

4. Do what you think is right for whatever reason. No matter what.

Just one more example of people having no fucking clue what they are talking about. Please tell me of all the "other" coronavirus vaccines that have been developed and distributed for decades. I'm dying to hear about them all.

It's a mind-boggling complex issue. "Coronavirus" is SARS-CoV-2. Research on vaccines for the SARS family of viruses has been going on for decades. "Distributed" is a stretch, I don't think any SARS vaccine was authorized in the U.S., beyond some clinical trials. But there were SARS vaccines used in other countries.

The talk that "Operation Warp Speed" developed a vaccine in record time is misleading at best. The mRNA vaccines were already there from the past decades of development. As soon as the Chinese gave the DNA sequence of the particular spike protein for SAR-COV-2 to worldwide scientists, the mRNA vaccines were produced within two weeks. The glory of OWS was in their funding the manufacture of vaccines, and accelerating the testing.

The mRNA vaccines for Covid are the first time that amazing technology has been deployed anywhere. The crushing need compressed the final testing.

I understand about 10% of what is presented here:

The news coming out this week about how contagious the Delta variant is makes the NFL rules impractical, IMO. Vaccinated ppl are catching and transmitting the virus at nearly the same rate as the unvaccinated. It seems near possible to keep an entire team virus free. The "bubble" will have to be even more secure than last year. Not sure how this is going to work.

The people are dying in the streets. Just open your eyes, it's all around you. Covid policies are making a lot of sense. There should be more of them to stop this blood bath.

Lol

So if you have 15 vaccinated guys in the weight room and and an unvaccinated guy shows up, either the unvaccinated guy is barred from entering or one of the vaccinated guys have to leave. Teams will have to figure out ways to deal with that. If I were a guy not assured of making the team, I'd get vaccinated.

The way you deal with that is ignoring it. I guarantee it's all for show and will not be followed.

Aside from that, you gave to be a blithering idiot to not realize this is tyranical medical apartheid in function.
They are using the nfl to show you what they plan to do to you trained dogs.
