athletes have families. athletes go to strip clubs. athletes go to restaurants and have servants who clean their homes. the servants have families.

athletes work closely with trainers and coaches. all these people have families

we've had hundreds of thousands of people die. athletes catching and spreading the disease isn't worth it just because you want to watch them run around with the ball

I don't know why professional athletes haven't been categorized as frontline essential workers for the purpose of vaccine priority. Their job clearly requires that they come into regular close physical contact with other people and cannot be done remotely.

And we are only talking about a few thousand people total, when we are now vaccinating over a million people a day.

I know ye on the far left disagree, but you can't legislate to 100% safety.

i never said a word about legislating to 100% safety. of course not. but we can do sooooo much better. like so many other countries did, almost every single one.

Let's ban Football, because someone might get a cold. It they transmit that very contagious condition to very sick/weak person, that person might die!

Michael Osterholm, who served on Biden’s corona transition team, says the US should prepare for a category 5 hurricane of Covid in the next 6 to 14 weeks. This will be due to the new UK variant.

He said the US should focus on getting the first dose of vaccine in as many people as possible right now.

I predict he will be accurate with this prediction.

Published vaccine effectiveness rates are measured as against getting the disease at all. Preliminary data seems to show that major vaccines prevent hospitalizations and deaths at extremely high rates. I'm becoming significantly more optimistic in recent days.

Saw that Rita Wilson, who got covid early, said she no longer has antibodies 11 months later.

I just read something worrying: Since patients on ventilators routinely get antibiotics, the corona pandemic could lead to more and more resistant bacterial strains emerging; effectively rendering antibiotics useless. In fact, a lot of Corona patients dying on ventilators might actually die from resistant strains that hitched a ride already.

So I predict we're heading towards some kind of Medical Mad Max scenario.

I predict we are on our way to a vaccinated late 2021. Low numbers and managed hot spots.

regular yearly vaccinations will be required for a long time to come. unless herd immunity really works and wipes it down to insignificance or ability to manage it.

I disagree. There will be a slight bump if I had to guess but nothing like he’s talking about. Look at the UK’s declining cases..

It really irritates me that people want to continue to justify lockdowns. The whole goal was to not overwhelm the hospital system which once the vaccines continue to roll out will be the key. The studies and trials have shown amazing results at how
Well the vaccines work to prevent hospitalizations and deaths which is the obvious goal.

JP Morgan quants came out with a very rosy prediction, that starting around April COVID will become a non-event. They downplay the mutants because their comparisons of areas exposed to mutants and those that were not do not show statistically different outcomes.

I'm going with 50%+ vaccination and < 10% of peak hospitalization rates in U.S. by July 1. That to me will be the tipping point.

I agree and think this sounds fair. The J&J vaccine is a game changer IMO.

People need to realize that the studies show getting the vaccine from what I’m pretty sure I understand nearly eliminate the chances of a severe outcome from COVID and will help reduce hospitalizations A TON!

we need the world vaccinated though. if say africa isnt, then a mutant strain that is very deadly can come about that is not affected by the vaccines. as we have found there is very little other than slowing down the spread in this modern day of world traveling population.
