The surge in Texas completely proves your point and it is irrefutable and fully consistent with the argument you just made that the large data set of a surge following that opening. Thank you for admitting you you were wrong last spring. Clearly the Rangers are responsible for COVID cases...declining for 3.5 months after their home opener... Keep talking to yourself and knocking down the arguments you make for others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep talking to yourself and knocking down the arguments you make for others. Quote In any case, the reason cases were/are up was/is because of the delta variant not because of a masks. There is no correlation between mask mandates and cases going down if you're looking at a larger samples (countries, major metros, etc.) over a timeframe capturing the duration of the COVID pandemic. Well, you rejected the turnaround in case numbers starting 2 weeks after the first mask mandate was issued last year, so clearly you argument that ballparks are the main cause of the last peak must be much stronger.

greg775 Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Draymond Green brings it. He says this vaccine fight seems political. You don't say. I'm surprised twitter allows his statements to be on there without a warning or removal. Love when people are allowed to speak out like the old days. ... Also like LeBron's position which is rare for me. He isn't gonna go telling peeps what to do. Personal decisions are personal decisions IMO. Love your posts, Rabbit.

This a public health & safety issue that should go beyond personal freedoms. People should not have the right to make a dumb decision that can affect the well-being of others. That’s the exact reason we have these things called laws here. But please continue to applaud people who support the right to make uninformed, dangerous decisions.

Texsox Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Nuclear waste is the Hitler of this discussion. When we can mitigate danger to others we allow people to choose. You don't have to wear your glasses, unless you're going to drive on public roads. You can choose to get drunk, but you can't drive. You don't have to wear shoes or shirt, unless you want to enter a store. I'm all for allowing people to choose to not get vaccinated, but you shouldn't be allowed in a public building or workplace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does he mean that it has become political? I’m not taking a Democratic or Republican stance here, it seems like it’s public health versus individual choice. Not all republicans refuse the vaccine. So if he wants to frame it as a public health debate versus individual choice, fine, but that’s better than saying “oh it’s all become political man.” Again, actions have consequences when it comes to employers and employees and local rules. They need to recognize that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green can frame it that way but again, it comes down to an employer/employee/union/league relationships/rules and local rules. I really don’t care what becomes of the boosters and other shots year after year. It’s not control or any of the garbage people say. Right now the only thing I care about is getting my son vaccinated and any entity doing anything they can to beat the virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joejoesox Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Any nurses/doctors wanna weigh in on the recent news regarding the vaccines being improperly administered? Dr. John Campbell of the UK (he's been interviewed on CNN a few times) says all IM vaccines need to be aspirated to avoid the risk of intravenous injection, which can cause myopericarditis. Myopericarditis has been in the news more than a few times as a possible (albeit rare, 1 in 121000) reaction to the vaccine. Initially it was being written off as just an adverse reaction to the vaccine, but now it's being suggested by multiple doctors that this was likely caused by the vaccines not being aspirated to prevent injection into blood vessels. Neither of mine were aspirated and many Walgreens techs are refusing to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agreed with LeBron too. p.s. I don't care if athletes speak out. If I disagree with them, fine. I disagree with almost this entire board on issues that come up.
