And far too many people today only care about being on the winning side. The cost doesn't matter...

The XFL is coming back. Hopkins can still play football if he doesn’t want the vaccine

I don't think the point is to stop cases. What the NFL wants to do is get enough players vaxxed so they don't feel pressured to care about cases anymore. It may seem unfair to punish the vaxxed to make this point but can you blame an owner for freaking out about a $20m man going out there with no vaccination?

Vaccination only stops the severity not the contraction. And do you honestly think pro athletes with 12 kids are being careful?...

Think of the anger and passion in other situations when people complain about the disposability of black bodies in a capitalist system, or when they say 'I'm more than a product for your amusement.'

I get that. Again, I am not saying anyone should care about vaccinated cases. I am saying owners and fans have reason to care about unvaccinated cases, which is why they are using vaccination thresholds and punishments to peer pressure the unvaxed to comply.

We all stood in a long line in the gym to wait our turn to get the Smallpox vaccine, which was administered with a gun that left a scar the size of a quarter, which is still visible on my arm, along with every other shot and "sugar cube" with a vaccine. No one cried, no one refused - it was just a part of going to a public school Now, kids are vaccinated by their doctors and have to show their vaccination card before each and every school year and if they're not up to date, need to be vaccinated before the school year begins. I'll never in a million years understand why this is a such a difficult process for millions upon millions of people and I really don't care. But the fact of the matter is that ALL of us who've been vaccinated are still at risk because the virus is mutating, just like every other virus, because people are "choosing" not to get the vaccine. It ****ing sucks for the rest of us, regardless of the shape, size or color of the person who's refusing the vaccine. |

But 10% is a helluva lot better odds than 100% and if enough people aren't vaccinated soon, the current vaccine's protection will plunge due to the virus mutating, which is what we're seeing now. This is a Grade A cluster****. |

This doesn't. It's not a cure. It only helps your body recognize and fight it faster. If every single human on earth had this vaccine it wouldn't prevent anything other than overall mortality. My life is not as important as everyone else's freedom. Neither is yours. And it's not worth sacrificing the future for.

Since a bunch of people got banned in the Covid thread, I had almost forgotten how many dumbshits there are around.

My entire family, including my parents who are in their 70's, have been vaccinated without issue. The hundreds of millions who've received the vaccine haven't "sacrificed" anything. This has nothing to do with "Freedom" for ****'s Sake, although I won't shed a single tear for any ****ing dipshit that chooses not to vaccinate, then dies from the virus. Natural Selection at its finest. |

I'll skip over the lunacy of a vaccine being "not effective" because it's only 95% effective and prevents hospitalizations/deaths, but no one is being forced to do anything. No one's freedoms are being taken away, people are not tied to a table and given the vaccine against their will or being thrown in jail. Get a f'n grip.
