It's too keep those unvaccinated folks from facing a much bigger risk, of course. Fulky and Chandler will be back quickly.

I understand, so the “ vaccinated” are being punished for a positive test that 95% of the time amounts To nothing more than a mild cold. I say too bad for those that chose not to get vaccinated. They made that choice and they should make the choice of deciding to play or not to play ( and risk getting COVID)

Another private researcher who knows more than doctors, then gets condescending about it.

never claimed to be a researcher nor a doctor. But I can read state, federal, and CDC reports on Omicron coupled with the effectiveness of the vaccine and booster - it’s literally everywhere, if anyone actually cares to read.

I understand the purpose of other vaccines. The one that doesn’t prevent transmission, infection, or pretty much anything I don’t understand. I’m so tired of Covid.

The flu vaccine doesn’t prevent you from getting it. The flu shot annually is 40-60% effective. Neither does the shingles vaccine. My dad got the shingles vaccine and then got a mild case of shingles.

People just need to be informed. It’s about probabilities and reducing symptoms.

If I only understood that the US had been polio free since 1979; I guess I really don’t understand vaccines or vaccinations.

You are truly an expert on the subject.

Just read and you would understand. The flu vaccine is 40-60% effective. But you can’t argue with ignorance.

That’s why the call it a flu shot. The old definition of vaccine had to be altered to match this worthless jab. The symptoms of omicron are an extremely mild cold. The pandemic is over. I wish other people would figure it out.

not arguing with you the vaccine expert.

Just pointing out that the polio vaccine actually effectively eliminated polio in the US. Hmmmm.

But I clearly don’t understand how vaccines work nor do I hold your expert knowledge.

I expect that based upon your expert knowledge of all things Covid that you knew before anyone that a “booster” would be necessary even when the original “vaccine” was developed. Of course you did.

No it wasn’t. The definition was changed because the type of vaccine the Covid shot is. The flu shot is an active virus, while the Covid shot is not. Had nothing to do with how effective it is. The flu shot has been 40-60% effective for years.

And I’m not even a doctor, but I do inform myself.

I never said I was an expert, but I do read. Try it for a change. You do you though, like many more in this country.

You understand that “mild” in COVID terms basically means “not in the hospital”, right? “Extremely mild cold”? WTF does that even mean? How many people do you know that have or have had omicron? And how many were vaxxed/unvaxxed?

Interesting with So many people vaccinated this year there are more issues with this than there were last season prior to the vaccine.

This is just the variant that has mutated so much that vaccines and prior natural immunity is basically useless so it’s mega contagious. But it’s the common cold so who gives a f
