    It’s not wrong. Don’t want the vax? Cool you don’t get to play. These are private companies that can do what they want. Just get the ouchy shot and don’t be an idiot.

    there is no perfection and right from the beginning it was known that vaccination was going to lose effectiveness over time. The Delta Variant has changed even that equation

    but still, breakthrough cases don't mean that the vaccine is not effective, especially compared to unvaccinated infection rates

    what part of NO FANS and no practices on the road with constant testing and social distancing don't you understand? Last year was a moving bubble in empty arenas...this year there are fans...try to keep up..they couldn't even practice together preseason last year...it's nothing like this season ...there's no hypocrisy in any of that...it's rolling with the punches

    look at Israel, who's preppimg for a 2nd booster, to see the case rates are growing similarly.

    That's arguably my favorite classic rock group of all time if you don't count Bob Dylan as a Classic rock group.

    Factcheck: "Missing context. The claim ignores the fact that Israel has only a fraction of the COVID-19 cases that it had in January, before vaccines were widespread. Furthermore, the majority of adults in Israel are now vaccinated with two Pfizer shots. No vaccine is perfect at preventing breakthrough cases, but the data shows vaccines are reducing the number of people who are severely ill, hospitalized or die from the virus."

    Case rates only go up the same in people over 55, per ynet.co.il - and of the severe cases in people under 60, 84% are not vaccinated.

    .. and if you zoom into the time the 3rd dose was approved and give it the 3 weeks overhead since approval to deployment, you already see that the booster is slowing it even further. There is certainly a snake-oil merchant here, and it seems that you are the one spreading it.

    "Those figures indicated that 84% of younger seriously ill patients were those who did not receive the vaccine, compared to 3.4% who received the third jab."

    LOL....my gawd....you're posting a link from ZeroHedge. What next...an episode from Alex Jones?

    wasn't Israel just about fully vaccinated 8 months ago?

    that chart means nothing without time frame references. What percentage of vaccinated breakthrough infections were Delta, and what percentage occurred in people who had their 2nd shot more than 6 months ago?

    I don't appreciate you calling a factcheck "shit". I think every citizen has the duty to call out falseness no matter where they see it.
