So It Begins (Covid)

[Tweak]

 

[riverman]

Shut down the league now before the wives and children get sick for our entertainment. Let them practice only with negative results and shoot for reopening next spring. This Covid winter blizzard is not worth the risk. Same with traveling or vacationing. It’s beyond high risk for the next two to three months after all it’s just a game that can start up later on

 

[Orion Bailey]

Just cancelled our xmas tomorrow. Two family members sick. Aunt and uncle. Postponing a week… tentatively.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Not surprised. It was only a matter of time.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Since the pandemic has started I’ve never seen so many people infected within my circle. And nearly all of them are fully vaccinated. Crazy

What does them being fully vaccinated have to do with anything?

vaccination does not help you get immune to the virus, it only helps prevent the disease from getting extremely serious.

 

[THE HCP]

18 months in and suckas still need that explained to them. Sigh

I believe vaccines are suppose to be a deterrent, for specific virus's. Not just a "oh you wont get as sick' remedy.

That dudes a big time SUCKA

 

[BigGameDamian]

I’m still seeing so many people in stores not wearing masks. Unbelievable!

 

[Strenuus]

People still don't know how vaccinations work? How is that even possible?

 

[Scalma]

None of these dudes would even know they were sick as most of them are vaccinated. That’s the whole point of the vaccination and also why the league is looking at shortening isolation rather than shutting down the league. It has been kinda fun seeing all these players get opportunities though, as unfortunate as the circumstances are.

btw we have two dudes in protocols, but I’m not sure a two way counts so we probably don’t have to sign anyone off the street just yet. But I’m guessing that’s coming once others enter protocols. Wonder who gets the first call.

 

[MickZagger]

Two of our scrubs are in protocol. Dodged a bullet so far

I had a roommate in college that asked me, "what is dna, the stuff inside atoms?"

i didn’t even know how to begin

I'd of done the most by the book, biggest worded explanation I could find. Lol.

 

[beast blazer]

I have covid right now. It's not so bad.

Dude just mentioning how not a joke omericon is even if your vaxxed. Don’t worry I support the vaccine. Now put your pitchfork away

 

[TBpup]

Many initial reports of people with the new variant seem to have fairly light symptoms whether they are vaccinated or not.

Maybe that will help herd immunity.

Be safe.

This is true. However it's so contagious that even a lower percentage of patients going to the hospital may overwhelm ICUs like we haven't seen yet.

And agree 100%, fingers crossed that if we have to go through this, enough people get immunity to end the pandemic.

 

[James lamphear]

The shots won't guarantee not getting the virus but give you high percentage chance not staying in the hospital or dying. Hell the flu shot doesn't guarantee your not going catch but it might help you staying out of the hospital or either dying. I haven't caught it but my son and his family did and due to them being healthy they recover. I got all the shots and still wear a mask and still stay away from people in the outing I take.

dont you live in the Portland metro area? If so, 99% of people in stores are masked up

I’m in the Beaverton area. I was in a couple of stores today and just saw some people not wearing masks and saw a few not wearing them properly. My question is, If a person has their mask draped below their nose or draped below their chin does it count as technically as wearing a mask?

Good luck, I'm sorry to hear that ...hopefully you get through it ok.

Was in Freddies in Canby yesterday and every third person was maskless.
Stupid hicks.

Isn't there an OT topic there somewhere already?

it means they are either stupid or an asshole. To simplify: stupid asshole

The wife, and toddler in the cart basket, masked up. Papa pushing the cart, no mask anywhere…

Mom holding sniffling, snotty child. Neither masked.

Canby freddies

now I'm not sold on masks as much as some others, but they help. So i wear mine. If they help more than I think, great. But what i see out there is just ridiculous.
