I fear even double masks wouldn't help. We know that the nature of baseball is an extremely physical in your face type of sport. Undoubtedly the virus could waft from the outfielders into the stands and potentially kill most spectators. They made the right call forcing NCST to forfeit, and honestly I think they should consider razing the stadium and covering it in Purel.
Political goal? What in the hell are you talking about? We are talking about a novel virus that started a global Pandemic which has killed millions in the World, over 600,00 in the US. I am amazed that we have accomplished as much to control it, despite the fact that so many people have refused to take advantage of the most effective vaccine ever created. One has to realize that we still have the opportunity to save lives and suffering if more people would take the vaccine. Those who refuse are the ones will end up suffering the most.
There are documented cases everywhere where vaccinated people are getting it again.
Interesting that we never hear about folks that died after getting the vaccine. There are 3 that I know of in West TN that were under 40 with no noted health issues. One was a doctor.
Placing the vaccine on a pedestal without long term data is irresponsible and quite frankly stupid. Folks that should know better have succumbed to the fear.
Weak ass answer. You can’t deny that 80% of the Heath conditions today are lifestyle related and that there is no guarantee that these vaccines won’t have numerous side effects later.
The virus is 98% survivable. Vaccine with no long term data is questionable. Like I said earlier, this virus has made people do dumb things.
My dad is 75. Cancer survivor. He got it and I supported his decision.What data do we have at hand that the complications from the vaccine are worse than those of the virus? And it's really important to remember that the virus is not 98% survivable for certain demographics. Would you recommend against the vaccine to a 60+ year old loved one?

The idiocy is right there in what you said. Why vaccinate demographics that are not at risk with a vaccine that has no long term data. Like I said earlier the panic has made folks do dumb things.
I think we agree on a lot of points. NC State would be playing if common sense prevailed. The players are in the demographics that do not need to vaccinate.To answer your question: the vaccines greatly reduce transmission. To the extent that it helps herd immunity and protects at-risk folks, I'm good with it.
But, to your point: young kids seem all but immune to serious symptoms and rarely transmit. Both of my kids are under 12 and they won't be getting vaccinated if and when it becomes available to them. There's no point. It's not that I'm worried about complications, but why vaccinate against something they're extremely unlikely to get or pass on?
EUA is not FDA approval. Misinformation? Yeah, I'm the one spreading it. Just eat your bread and watch the circus. We all know the government would NEVER do anything to harm its own citizens for experimentation. I am 100% positive the good folks of Tuskegee would agree.The FDA gave Moderna, Pfizer, and JJ EUAs. The scientific rigor and burden of proof that is required to obtain an EUA is heavy. Not sure what your point is but to spread misinformation...
