Will there be Spring practice, Covid-19 vaccine

Not exactly true. Extremely aggressive viruses are much easier to get under control because they kill their hosts rapidly, losing the ability to mutate and pass on.
Not my point.
My point is, SARS is still around, far deadlier, should we alter our lives?
We have a vaccine, people get the vaccine, but still act like its SARS at the door.

The only question is mutations,and the continued viability of the current vaccine, you and I know this.
But, whats not being said is, in the interum, UNTIL or IF the virus mutates, we are safe.
The other thing not being said is, virus almost always get weaker as they become more infectious, same coin, different side of the SARS understanding,killing the host slows infections, if the opposire occurs, great infectious capability, it will need hosts, lots of them, so they cant put them at home, in the hospital etc, where people tend not to mix, feeling as they do, so a lightening of effect, coupled with a very high infectious rate will out pace a slower, more deadlier form of the same virus.

B. 2 month immunity
C. 10-15% reaction rate
D. Bell's Palsy
E. Increased HIV risk
F. Anaphylaxis
G. No manufacturer liability
H. Still have to wear a mask
I. All the above

yeah, it's a real mystery why a pill that costs one dollar was looked over or slandered by the media in favor of experimental treatments & vaccines that cost millions to develop, distribute & sell that were all subsidized by taxpayer money

This isnt fair.
 
Not that this is a race, but its efficiency that counts.
Most needles in arms?
West by God Virginia with over 10% of its population vaccinated
 
I give, y'all are obviously much smarter than Dr. Fauci, the WHO, docs, nurses, etc.

Throw your masks out, dance in the streets, I just frankly don't give a hairy rat's behind.

I know what would make a difference but thanks to the anti mask crowd it won't happen and this Baby Poop will linger on forever.

Have fun -- I just hope you don't find out, like so many have, as they lay on their death beds screaming that this cannot be COVID-19 and they just cannot be dying.

Tired of playing, tired of all the COVID-19 crap in all of it's various forms and computations, just tired.

Wearing masks has nothing to do with vaccines, other than once youve been vaccinated, you no longer need one.
There are those,likely less than 5%, that the vaccine wont help, but hard choices if we continue to shut everything down for those under 5%.
And, where is Faucis fix for those under 5%?
Whats he say?
Is he already looking into that?
He should have already not only addressed that, but have things in motion.
 
:huh: :p

Right!?!?!?

It's almost as if the military has some kind of weirdo obsession with keeping it's members alive.

:D
LOL....It's a wonder you 2 are alive with all the things they put into your bodies. :) Seriously though, this is why everyone should be vaccinated. You 2 survived those innoculations with god knows what they had in them. ;)

You're either going to get it or you've had it you're either going to die or be one of the 99.5% that recover.. It's not going anywhere. I've never been one to ask anything from the government and government can not keep you safe from a virus. But they can take your liberty. So stay home wear a mask convince yourself you're safe. Let the rest of us live our lives.
I may not agree with your opinion but will fight to the death for your right to speak it.
 
Over 21.1 million vaccinated now, at one a million a day, and still accelerating,as kinks get worked out.
Waiting on new vaccine deliveries, as well as J&J to come in.
 
This is all I am going to say...

Deciding:

*what to have for dinner
*what movie to watch
*lift or run
*buy a new car or used

those are examples of personal choice.

When it comes to a vaccine that will save lives, there is no "personal choice" option.

Because your selfish "personal choice" will kill other people even if you're personally asymptomatic.

I can't believe I have to tell another supposed adult that your actions and decisions don't happen in a vacuum. Your actions and decisions on whether to get vaccinated affects other people.

Gawd I wish I could say what is actually on my mind...

:banghead:

:ThrowComp:

Get a grip. I can chose what I want. No one has done a damn thing for me in my life, sit on your couch loser.

Both my parents are over 75 and earliest appointment was end of February. Some over 75 are just showing up and getting vaccines. Others getting turned away. Now people of all tiers/groups are showing up and some get vaccines as walk ups, some not. It depends on if there have been now shows. Turns out that people were scheduling appointments at the sites and going to the first one that confirmed their appointment and then no showing. Those showing up are getting vaccines because they have to be used in a certain time frame per local newspaper. In less than a week we went from front line health workers to 75 and over to now essential workers which is government workers and everyone else that is deemed essential - whatever that is because each site has its own definition.
I have a brother who works for a Municipality in another state who was told to come in this weekend to get the vaccine. Since he is a government worker, he might have to deal with someone in the public so they all are now in the highest level to get vaccinates.
Rumor is also that there are people from other states that are showing up - some with reservations, some without - because the can't get it in their state. People being interviewed own houses here - ie rentals, party houses - but live in another state and are using that to jump the line somehow here.
Has nothing to do with the spring game however but I can't wait until the pro and college athletes start getting vaccines here shortly and its deemed essential.

Keep trying. Our original tier group was 75 and we could not get in, they lowered it to 65 and no trouble, Monday morning. Good luck.

Just toomuch confusion, today people lack a certain respect socially, in greater numbers.

The production ramp up needs to happen, as other countries want some too.
I'd rea where other manufacturers were getting involved in production on their end to stay ahead, so, it shouldnt be long, hopefully by mid February anyone can get in.
 
The other day I was speaking with an old army buddy of mine. We were talking about how neither of us ever get sick. We decided there are two reasons for this. First, we have always stayed fit. Second, we have probably been exposed to every type of bacteria there is. We spent our youth playing in the dirt and mud, playing with frogs and bugs, swimming in a creek, drinking from a garden hose and all the things they say not to do now. Beyond that in Vietnam we lived in filth for a year. We were also bitten by about every type of insect known to man.

Most people are not like this. The average person in this country is 30 or 40 pounds over weight. They rarely do anything physical. Even the kids sit in front of a game console or TV all day long. Half of them think going outside is a form of punishment. Even seeing a kid on a bicycle anymore is a rarity. Most of the people now live in a sterile environment. They are germophobic. They have no immunities to anything. They are not healthy and have set themselves up to be vulnerable to a virus like this.

My point is, why should I alter my life for those who are too lazy or ignorant to care for themselves. You can call me selfish, but I am not my brother's keeper. If I decide to be inoculated, it will be based on what is best for me.
 
Imagine at this current pace and increasing, if by mid April ol buddy Kevin comes out and says,no people in the stands for spring games in the Big, while half or more of every person has been vaccinated.
Watch for it.
Cases should start dropping sharply next minth, and we go back to a mid summers numbers, where therell be pockets of breakouts, but not as great even then.

While there are more infectious mutations out there, so far, none have mutated where our vaccines do their work, but even so, other mutations may be able to 'hide' the virus, but even then, its effects will be like being exposed again, an wont gain foothold, but could cause mild reactions, as weve seen with the very very few who have gotten it twice.

Lets hope Kevin knows how to count
Oh, and thats not counting the asymptomatic group,still likely the largest grou of all.
