You want to talk Israeli policy or science? I've already loaded you up on the science and continue to do so.
And you still have never, not once, backed up your line that vaccines don't work past 6 months for most people.
Israel is making their policy based on the research that shows among the most vulnerable the efficacy wanes usually around 6 months. The US govt agrees which is why medicare is offering booster shots. If you want to argue another reason for the policy have at it. The lack of large studies is due to the fact that we are 6 months from most people getting their vaccines.

Did you expect parents to start being responsible parents?
Thats why there has to be a mandate when it’s approved. Parents can’t be trusted. They lie, especially when it comes to their kids, or their planned yearly vacation.
They also don’t want their kids getting flagged for Covid cooties. They’ll do whatever it takes to hide it, including infecting others.
Half of the people on this board wouldn’t notify the school if their kid had symptoms or tested positive and they’d just send them to school. There’s no doubt in my mind. Across the board.
Thank you for reinforcing my point, others are irresponsible but they can tell me what to do. People under 18 are under 500 of the Covid deaths, so you are stating that children are responsible for protecting those over 60 because people over 60 won't protect themselves?
4 minutes ago, Sundancer said:That's idiotic. There are plenty of therapeutics that have scientific backing that people support. Hydrochloroquine got way out ahead on Twitter only to come back to earth when studies got done. Ivermectin has at least the same Twitter MD support at the moment.
But go ahead and get on with your conspiracy of control thing.
I hope Ivermectin turns out to be the miracle treatment we've all wanted. But I'll wait for some scientific consensus before lauding it as such, especially as a legion of Rogan-disciples (I like Joe, listen to his podcast BTW, but he's often batshit nuts) follow him down this road.
You should try out your line that "vaccines don't work for the most part beyond 6 months" next time you see him. Should prompt a stellar misinformation discussion.
You still have not explained why Israel is limiting travel to those with a shot within 6 months and my parents are being pushed to get a boaster after 6 months? If the vaccine worked longer what is the reason?

The appropriate response to people like that is to tell them to &$&@ off in as nice a way as you see fit.
The kid is a good kid and a good friend to my son, so I keep my mouth generally shut around them.

To anyone who truly does not understand the objection to the vaccine mandate let me explain. One of my son's friends currently has a mild case of Covid but about 2 months ago, before I got my vaccine, his parents lectured me and several others how we were irresponsible not to have it and went to great lengths to explain how we bordered on immoral. These parents took their child on one of the test cruises last week, where he got Covid, but then allowed him to go unmasked to meet friends on Monday knowing he had a sore throat. They see no issues with being irresponsible and taking risks but everyone else is bad for not protecting them

We all make selfish decisions in life but the rank hypocrisy sometimes is astounding.

Some good DBs in the twilight of their careers available for depth. Many with significant snaps from 2018-2020. I haven't seen any signings yet.
I am not proposing the following could be replacements for starters, but could add some solid depth. I know PFF is persona non grata here, but it's one way to measure player ability
https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-roster-cuts-tracker-2021
POS-NAME-(Snaps 2018-2020)-PFF Grade
CB - Desmond Trufant (1906) - 64.4
CB - Rasul Douglas (1868) - 64.2
CB - Prince Amukamara - (1869) - 78.5
CB - Pierre Desir (2257) - 66.0
S - Clayton Geathers (1178) - 73.9
S - Will Parks (1349) - 64
S - Tony Jefferson (1211) - 66.8
S- Ha Ha Clinton-Dix (2091) - 81.2
Others available:
CB Dre Kirkpatrick
CB Richard Sherman
Ha ha Clinton Dix was a high school teamate of Matt Milano, so there is some familiarity there.

I am surprised all the unvaccinated are dying. I thought hydrochloroquine was keeping them safe.
Masks are more than theater. They reduce transmission of course. Policies didn't work tough. I'm like you. Don't mask anywhere unless required or requested by a business. I will likely N95 at Bills games just because I spend a lot of time taking care of elderly relatives and that's a high transmission setting
The N95 is effective but the cloth masks are theatre in most cases. I have to mask in my classroom where kids will be with me for 45 minutes at a time, the cloth mask is not protecting them. If I came to work sick with Covid symptoms the entire room would be infected before 1st period with or without cloth mask. I am curious why you are obsessed with HCQ? It is a benign medicine that people have taken literally weekly for years with no ill effects. Is it because Trump was wrong and it was not the miracle cure?

They had the 31st defense in the NFL.
I take the entire 2020 Chicago Bears roster over the entire 2020 Jags roster. Despite the "top end running back" lol.
I was going to argue more but upon further research of Minshew I realized he was not the Jags problem last year. I still take Tribiskey because he has already had a pro bowl year and been to playoffs but Minshew in Philly might be good also.

Call me crazy but I think Gardner Minshew is a better QB than Mitchell.
You pick the guy who was 1-7 last year despite having a top end running back. Mitch has been to the playoffs twice and a pro bowl despite having limited weapons around him. I take Mitch every day.

The Steelers offensive line is not set with 5 decent starters, I doubt Covid will cause us as many issues as that

Dude
I literally mean you have nothing to worry about because you are vaccinated
The fact they have you in masks still should be infuriating or any other mitigation for that matter.
part of the issue is that your initial statement reads different than it would sound as you spoke it. your overall point is true though, i am vaccinated, not high risk, and I don't wear my mask unless required. at my daughters volleyball game this week some kids on the court were wearing masks, which is all political theatre. I will protect me and you protect you, which is always the safest way to be.

Red helmet, blue jersey, white pants, white socks is a really clean look I like to do in Madden....
It concerns me that you and I agree on this- it probably means we both have bad taste

Yours is good but not with a blue jersey, if it was the all whites this helmet might look great.

Look at the above graph that is up to date from just a week ago. Israel wants more but it is doubtful it needs more.
Their severe hospitalizations and deaths are among unvaccinated. Just like here.
***** that. I want all 9 of them and 2 playoff wins.Not sure what you are referencing since you don't have any graph but in Israel of the hospitaized 59 percent were fully vaccinated, according to an Aug. 16 article from Science that cited national data tracked by Israel's largest health management organization.

I have no problem selling my jet ski, that I don’t even use, if it’s for the greater good.
You’re a real mess dude. I think you need to fly in and hang out with some “real” people. No one cares about these things.
Why do you get to decide what is for the "greater good"? You can sell your jet ski right now and donate the proceeds to your chosen charity and help the "greater good" but you won't because all of your kindness is theoretical. Secondly what kind of dummy believes giving the government money helps the "greater good"?

If everyone was vaccinated, barely anyone would be in the hospitals. Deaths would not be above pandemic thresholds. And we wouldn’t be masking (in schools FFS) or even testing except in medical settings and maybe with the most vulnerable. It’s not that hard to understand. It’s not a conspiracy of control. We just have overwhelmed hospitals and medical care.
I am living my life without restrictions right now. I hope to continue but suspect the unvaccinated will be filling northeastern hospitals soon and our ***** governors will react.
Much of this is wrong. And has been proven so many times. The vaccine “limited time” narrative is hugely overblown right now. It remains the best defense because you don’t get Covid and spread it for a longer time to get that immunity.It is amazing how Israel has rising cases despite being the most vaccinated country, and the vaccine lasts longer than the six months but Covid is ravaging my parents retirement community right now when almost all of them got vaccinated in February. The antibodies produced by those who are at high risk drop much faster than those who are low risk. There are several smaller studies that show that the high risk people lose the antibodies quicker and they are consistent.

Fields should probably start but you do so with the understanding that he’s likely not going to be very good and the team will struggle because of it. They just don’t have the weapons or online capable of protecting him well.
It’s impossible to get excited or confident with Dalton as your starting QB. You just have to hope that Fields progresses and gives you hope for next season.
If Nagy was in his first year he would start Fields and let him learn this year, like Josh or Manning way back when, but he has to show better than 8-9 or else he will be fired and someone else can use Fields next year. Dalton gives them the best chance week one though Fields give the best chance week 16 if he starts early

I had my Culturally Based Teaching training, which had an absolutely hilarious moment. As our very liberal black presenter told us how we should not Americanize African and Latino names she Americanized one of our coworkers Polish names. She also made a statement that Africans and Latino culture are not a single culture like white culture.

And Biden should be reaching out to the community leaders like I mentioned to get them to motivate people to get it done. You know......teamwork!
You're just pissed because it's a great idea and your old man didn't think of it because he has no idea how to lead. Not his fault actually. He's had no real role models in DC in the half a century he's been there to show him what true leadership is.
Carry on Follower
I know I am stupid for believing the Israel government but between my parents needing a booster 6 months after initial jabs and Israel I am gonna say the efficacy of the shots are not all that effective 6 months after the jab.

Joe Schad is the reporter covering the Dolphins for the Palm Beach post, previously worked for ESPN
One would think, but if I could conditionally buy a house that might or might be liveable for the next 2 years and you let me make the conditions protective enough of my interests, I might go for it - if it was a much bigger and nicer house than the one I'm currently living in
You make a good argument but the report is so different. But seeing as my point is the report is crap your response is more likely than the actual report.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/88-old-professor-georgia-resigned-183510351.html
This is absurdly unhealthy expecting 18 year olds to change their behaviors to protect a 88 year old who needs to protect himself. This professor should have retired when he needed everyone else on the planet to protect him. I would fully explain to my parents that if they expect complete strangers to go out of their way so they could feel better they should not be in that situation

I read on some news site that Texans are team that leaked the info that Dolphins are front runners. They could be front runners but also could be because they are only team in discussion at this point. No team is trading much for a dude who likely will not play for at least one whole season if not gone forever.

The game plan McDermott and Frazier used first time round against the Chiefs last year was a good plan. I get it that fans hate it. A lot of them grew up when football was about toughness first and toughness last and having yards piled up against you on the ground was an affront to your manhood. But that isn't the NFL anymore. It so nearly worked too. An inch away from a forced fumble that would have likely won us the game and then a blown coverage on a broken play on a 3rd down scramble drill. The NFL used to be a run and stop the run league. It is now a pass and stop the pass league.
That game against KC was not that our defense was bad against the run, just that it we chose to be better against the pass. Sometimes you have to pick your poison and we did it properly, despite Josh having a poor game by his 2020 standard we were one play from winning. Your point is why this study is so flawed.

I generally try to be more diplomatic in normal life than here, and I have been clear that the mask mandate on the kids is absurd, so on topics I find important I have a big mouth.
