Breaking News: Teams will Forfeit if...

You're like the only black dude that says "blacks". Sadly, vaccine hesitancy, and general mistrust of the government, is real amongst minorities. Most of my family have got it. One brother and one sister, who is anti-vax, has not. The sister, her daughter caught it at Mardi Gras 2020, her son, college athlete, has it, probably for the 2nd time. Had a mystery virus in fall of 2019 that was a textbook covid case. She nursed them back to health every time and is as fit as a whistle. To each their own. She's very much a "Hey, it's in God's hands." type of person and I respect it.

Vaccine hesitancy in the black community is as much a social economic thing as a racial thing. Most of my family are vaccinated, we're all doing well financially. That can be said for my extended family as well, atleast on my father's side. Go into the neighborhood where we grew up though and i'm sure it's a different story.

 Plus, and very frankly, these vaccines are very experimental. You can't blame someone for being hesitant. As I have said many times on this site, the use of mRNA and crispris the future of medicine so some of us need to be the lab rats but make no mistake, lab rats we are.

Funny sidebar, I bet if they were using mRNA to give dudes bigger heaters, you would have zero hesitancy and 100% compliance.

When are you changing your avatar to one of your fellow cultists ?? My pillow guy , Marge taylor Green , or the Confederate flag waver ar the Capitol...

Luckily I've done very well on wagering  over the last year ( my best ever including $19,900 on the election and another $2245 from my neighbor when trump is not reinstated on August 13th, Over 10k on NBA futures , and 13k on football last year  ) ... Hopefully the current trend continues ( although the NHL, Concacaf and the olympics were losers ) 

Best of luck this coming season BROTHER ..Would love to see your weekly picks..

Maybe if you win some money you won't be so angry on the interweb 

Every dude would be like, "I'm not taking that jab. I don't need it." but you would see lines around the block at every pharmacy.

@StumpTownStu

You probably hit the nail on the head with it being as much a social economic thing ...Seems like many people i talk to from where I grew up are the most hesitant ( many of them in their 40's dont even have a primary doctor ) .. While those who have moved out of that current war zone are mostly vaccinated...

And yes you know if it gave them bigger johnsons they'd be lining up ...I rib on my one old buddy who is anti Covid vax , dude is on every performance enhancing drug he can get his hands on ...With legs of small child and a upper body of the incredible hulk 

 Must be a NY thing ( blacks) ..I cant stand the young cats who say Nicca every other word here in a fake NYC accent 

Vaccine "hesitancy" is a MSM propaganda meme. So no surprise the Covid Comedy troll duo found a way to work it into the conversation. It's like saying someone has Russian roulette hesitancy because the govt is mandating every one put a gun to their  head, you know, because it will eventually stop the spread. The government's "cure" is always worse than the fake boogymen they invent to scare the sheep. And I've been warning you all since they shut down March madness and began using sports as a Covidiocracy politicalweapon.

Mctrap is the real life 40 year old virgin. How am I a covid troll? I barely even talk about it. You are obsessed with it always referencing masks because you probably have a menial service industry job that requires you to wear one. All I have ever said was corona viruses are real and this family of corona viruses (SARS-COV1, SARS-COV2, etc) can possibly cause severe respiratory and pulmonary ailments. That's all. I have always been against shutdowns. I have continued to live my life, to socialize. I have never advocated for vaccines. Have always said they are experimental and a personal choice.

@mctrap

You are just a troll who probably blames your lack of a social life and female companionship on covid when really we all know you were a loser incel looooong before any of this started. That's why you're always complaining. Your life sucks. It's not covid. It's you.

lots of businesses and governments are requiring their workers to get vaccinated.

why is the NFL softer than that?

government makes you send you child to school (even if it's home schooled)... government makes everyone pay tax... government had a military draft in recent memory. how is forcing someone to get vaccinated to play in NFL much different?

i love how players who scored under 10 on the wonderlic seem to be at the forefront of the anti-vaxx movement... whereas, the smartest, richest most successful people in the world VAXX with zero concerns?..... hmmmmm???

The old game keeps getting fishier and fishier!!

Joseph Goebbels says:
"Zero deaths can be attributed to the COVID vaccine."

You sicko"s love to compare Covid vax to the holocaust....

You should definitely change your avatar to Marjorie Taylor Greene ....You 2  sick rubes apparently are sharing the same bird brain ..

Never argue with an idiot   First they drag you down to their level then they beat you with experience

So Alberta basically drops all covid restrictions making it basically one of the most free from government covid control regions on earth. Meanwhile Quebec just announced vaccine passports to enter businesses. Follow the " science " hahaha

@Bigdoubleplay

Same as the US ...Morons at the highest levels ..Take a look at Florida setting records for hospitalizations..

Alberta's chief medical officer of health is apologizing for causing "confusion, fear or anger" after communicating the province's plan to lift its remaining COVID-19 public health measures.

In a column sent to various media outlets Wednesday, Dr. Deena Hinshaw says her words have caused some people to think she believes COVID-19 is over.

She said in the column that lifting precautions, including isolation requirements, asymptomatic testing and contact tracing will support the whole health of Albertans by allowing the province to focus on other health threats, opioid deaths and syphilis.

"COVID-19 is a wicked problem; experts don't always agree on the exact nature of the problem, much less the best approach. But it is not the only wicked problem we are facing together," she wrote.

Close contacts of people who test positive for COVID-19 are no longer being notified by contact tracers, nor are they required to isolate. Starting Aug. 16, infected individuals will no longer be legally required to isolate either.

Dr. Joe Vipond, an emergency room doctor in Calgary and co-founder of advocacy group Masks4Canada, called Hinshaw's column a "non-apology."

"She's apologizing for the way it was communicated, not for the content of the policy. And there are still serious concerns about the policy," Vipond told CBC News.

Most Albertans want this to be over, but that's not the reality.
- Dr. Joe Vipond
Vipond said some of Hinshaw's arguments can easily be picked apart, like her point that dropping COVID-19 measures allows the province to better focus on other health concerns."If we let things go, we are going to be dealing with exponential COVID and a big, bad flu season. But if we put in simple measures like mandatory masking, we can actually keep both at bay," he said.

"It just seems very clear that our chief medical officer of health wants this to be over and wants to pretend that there's nothing more that needs to be done," Vipond said.

"I would concur that most Albertans want this to be over, but that's not the reality. We're well into the fourth wave. And unless we put some mitigation measures on this exponential growth, we're in for a world of hurt."

Alberta's active case numbers, R-value and positivity rate have grown dramatically in recent days, and experts say the virus is now spreading faster in the province than during its third wave.

Dr. Quentin Durand-Moreau, a specialist in occupational medicine at the University of Alberta, said Hinshaw's comments about "fear" aren't an appropriate way to deal with scientific disagreement.

Physicians ask for evidence
In an open letter earlier Wednesday, a group of 10 physicians from the Edmonton Zone Medical Staff Association said Alberta is going against the advice from Health Canada, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization.

The letter also draws attention to threats posed by the COVID-19 delta variant and the potential for pediatric and adult intensive care units to become overwhelmed should Alberta continue with its approach.

The group asks the province to review existing data and provide sound evidence before weakening COVID-19 control measures.

"We are concerned with the rapid speed of these changes and that you have provided no scientific data to Albertans to justify these unprecedented actions," read the letter.

"There are repetitive waves of COVID-19 variants moving around the world and we have not yet reached a safe state with a constant low level of virus in our community

The CDC =disinformation propaganda agency that lies to protect big Pharma has actually just admitted that 12k have died after getting The shots in the last 18 months, double the amount of deaths recorded following ALL vaccinated for the past 30 years.

So, just consider the personal attacks, the ad hominems and the attempts to discredit the truth as proof that these paid and pathetic big Pharma trolls are afraid that more and more people are awakening to their con game.    

Yes sir buddy. The con game is unraveling.

"Alberta Court Victory ENDS Covid"

Patrick King is a proud father of 2, freedom fighter and patriot who took on the powerful government in Alberta, and WON! ENDS masking, shots, quarantine in Alberta!

Per Wikipedia, rumble.com hosts many conspiracy theorists.  Believe whatever you want at the cost of your own credibility.

You are a scrub they bring out from the BULL pen dog.

Who's smarter? Someone who hasn't caught a single thing the entire time while not following and govt fear mongering.

Or someone wearing a mask outside alone or in a car with no one around..... 

@DoubleUp4Life

 The Alberta doctors on the Big Pharma payroll = fake science by "experts" who are trained in propaganda.

The Delta variant and all the upcoming MSM fear-scam variants that will follow, are ILLUSIONS. Because to believe it, you have to be living inside that fake reality constructed by the MSM. It's scam version 2.0 in the long con game. And while the NFL will abide by the Covid Con script, it will be just one more nail in their coffin as a lot more people will become fed up with yet another layer of shadyness.

Turning off the idiot tube and tuning out the Big Pharma trolls IS the real "vaccine."

Hey Dogbite,

Seriously, guy...the FOUNDER of Wikipedia - NOT a conservative - has himself said Wiki has been hijacked and co-opted by the Left.  So you're in effect regurgitating all the propaganda machines of the Left when you talk like this.  Doesn't help your cred, DBW...except with DU lol.

Sweep your board this NFL season, bud !!!!!!!
