They are playing a team sport and putting others at risk besides themselves. From a public health perspective, these players should be embracing getting vaccinated ASAP and serving as role models to others - they surely have access to enough information on the benefits.

Personal freedoms are not trivial or insignificant. However, I do think at least to an extent, we all share some public responsibility. As with most things in life, there needs to be compromise. But basketball might just be a situation where it’s harder to compromise. It’s not ping pong. Players are literally up in each other’s personal space, often face to face, huffing and puffing each other’s air. If an NBA player isn’t vaccinated, I’d just as well have them stay home from all team activities, keep them away from everything.

People are free to make their own decisions about the vaccine. But that also means there are consequences to those decisions.

So this part is always funny to me. Like Lebron coming out recently and saying he did all this research. Like he is scientist now with his G.E.D. or whatever he has. :lol

People trust their doctors as they are well educated and informed. They should ask them if it's a good idea or not - not Kareem, Biden or whoever.

This is the part stupid people don't want to deal with, consequences of their own actions. They want the cake and eat it too.

And this isn't a "personal health decision", this is a public health problem.

You want to play with a loaded gun inside your house? Go ahead. You want to play with a loaded gun in any public space? Not ok, it stopped being a personal decision and became a public problem. We have plenty of laws in the book for that.

I was actually ok with Biden's mandate on employers for one reason - he left an out for those who don't want to get it. They can get tested regularly. It will be a inconvenience, but still allows them personal choice.

Testing has been terrible in this country. It was awful under Trump and has not gotten much better since, tbh.

well put. even though its a personal decision, its a decision that if mismanaged, can harm and even kill others.

i cant think of a worse way to mismanage it than to have absolutely no protection whatsoever and be in the faces of many other people on a daily basis

What I have issue with is the total lack of natural immunity being factored into all of this. Studies have shown that you are typically even MORE immune if you have already had covid. But I rarely hear anyone in the field mentioning it. Can you get it again, sure, but it's not that likely in the short term.

So if player x has already had the virus 3 months ago(and has proof) and wishes to not receive the vax...talks to his doctor who agrees with him, he should be exempt, imo.

Depends on what you call a bullet proof vest... right now it means you personally have reduced the time the virus will be in your system and thus the odds drastically that you're going to need to be hospitalized or die from this disease if you get infected.

You will still occasionally be asked to wear a mask in public to protect people that legitimately cannot get a vaccine due to medical reasons or are a higher risk.

It's not a cure, it's a way to train your system to fight the virus when and if the virus shows up. It substantially improves the odds you're going to win that battle, and you're going to do so quicker.

The bigger picture as it has been with almost all vaccines is that if you reduce the amount of time the virus is in a person, the less time it has to spread. That breaks the infection rate of the virus (ie: 1 person infects two, those two infect four, etc).

Over time, if we can get that down to 1 person infects 1 other person max (ie: sometimes it infects none), then we're in a extinction path, which means the virus population is substantially reduced.

That's where we are with polio, etc. The disease still exists, but it just cannot spread like it used to.

I don't care how anybody feels about Fauci, etc, tbh, it's a distraction.

Vaccines have existed for over 100 years, and they're all very much the same in how they operate as far as fighting disease goes.

It's not 100% riskless, no medicine ever has been, but it does saves lives in the short and long run, to the point it has helped us not need to be vaccinated against many diseases in many cases (ie: Tuberculosis).

But when you're stupid and looking for excuses, you'll find them or make them up. Can't help that people. You give them the information so they can't claim ignorance, and then let them go. The rest is time wasted.

My advice to NBA players, the last time there was a major viral outbreak, a certain superstar didn’t get the necessary protection and contacted HIV. I thought it was draconian for the nba to force him to retire even though the probability of transmission on the court is low through basketball contact and the knowledge of the virus was not that advanced. Magic should have had the freedom to play basketball with the virus and if others got the virus then it’s tough shit for them. They are just paying the price for magics freedom.

To extend this further (no pun intended) because it’s not 100% that HIV patients can infect others through unprotected sex, magic should have been allowed to sleep around town without strapping on.

:lmao "Others"..... have the choice to go out or not go out, get one of 3 shots or not get it, or get a virus that is barely worse than a common cold that might make them sick a day or a few days (I was sick for about 12 hours when I had it) and a 99.7% survival rate.

:lol globalist false-"altruist" delicate faggot liberals treating this low-rent URI outbreak like ebola

using "b-b-b-but Muh others... Waaaahh you SELFISH!!!1!!one!!1!eleven!1!" is a communist argument. Not even socialism... pure communism.

Part of me wishes Ebola 2014 would have had a covid esque pathogenic/infection rate in the USA, if not to wipe out a fifth of the US population then to at least have something to blame Obama for. Obama had it VERY easy in his 8 years compared to Bush or even Trump's only 4 years. look at the lack of hurricanes, foreign issues, and pandemics Obama faced compared to his predecessor and successor.

I'm not a anti-vaxxer at all, I got it and think it's a good idea. But we do have n95 masks readily available for people who are still uneasy about going out in public even though they are vaxxed. And unlike cloth masks, they actually offer good protection if properly fitted.

Employers can mandate vaccination as part of employment, NBA and its players aren't immune from that. No different than requiring annual flu vaccine, hepatitis vaccinations, etc.

They are free to chose to not get vaccinated, but consequences is that they will not get paid for services not rendered because of that decision. I doubt a team would break their contract for breach, but they could lose their job. Thats freedom too... door swings both ways.

Its not about their personal health and safety, but about everyone around them. Coaches, ancillary staff, fans, etc. Its a public pandemic, certain amount of individual liberty gets thrown out the window. Its happened time and time again. People were involuntarily sent to sanatoriums in the US because they had tuberculosis. You can be hospitalized against your will if they think you are a danger to yourself or others because of mental illness.

These players have nothing to stand on, unless they can prove a high risk from receiving it, like history gullien barre or multiple sclerosis, etc. They are being selfish divas who feel entitled to dictate everything because they make money (American dream)

They are playing a team sport and putting others at risk besides themselves. From a public health perspective, these players should be embracing getting vaccinated ASAP and serving as role models to others - they surely have access to enough information on the benefits.

I don't understand this argument. It's pretty well known at this point that those who are vaccinated can get COVID, but supposedly with less severe symptoms. So how are they anymore at risk? CNN, Saint Lemon, Lord Biden etc have told me for months now that it's only the unvaccinated at risk, they're the only ones in the hospital etc etc etc

It could be indirectly. Some players take care of their parents, grandparents, maybe a more vulnerable family member. Unvaccinated players will also be in contact with more than just other NBA players who are young and healthy.

Being unvaccinated increases the odds of infection and transmission. An unvaccinated NBA player gets it, has no symptoms, plays, gets 5 other players infected, one referee, and another 2 stadium staff members infected, all vaccinated. None of the 5 vaccinated players have symptoms but one player gets his 70 year old grandfather sick and he gets a severe case, the referee gets sick and infects his wife who has cancer, she's on a ventilator, the one stadium staffer who gets it is vaccinated but has Lupus, she dies.

The unvaccinated player later tests positive a couple days later. None of the players got sick or even knew they had it. This is how it spread so crazy to begin with. The people who didn't show symptoms passing it on to more vulnerable people.

It's all odds related. Vaccination doesn't end transmission. But it helps the odds tremendously. Unvaccinated people don't consider the indirect consequences. The unvaccinated covid patients taking ICU beds from non covid patients, for example. People have died because they couldn't get into the ICU for medical attention and procedures that could have saved their lives because unvaccinated covid patients have flooded ICU wards.

When you can't consider things other than direct actions and direct consequences, you fail to understand why we're still in a shithole place with this pandemic. And you'll make up excuses why pro vaxxers are dramatic, self righteous zealots. But in reality, you're just selfish assholes.

It’s even more amazing that those who are ignorant are so vocal on this subject not realize how stupid it makes them look.

There is indeed a large segment of the population who doesn't know how these products work, and it's the segment that projects the characteristics of fully tested, attenuated virus vaccines onto these spike protein generating, experimental products.

And wow, you can really tell who gets their information from the teevee on here:

"Being unvaccinated increases the odds of infection and transmission."

"But we do have n95 masks readily available for people who are still uneasy about going out in public even though they are vaxxed. And unlike cloth masks, they actually offer good protection if properly fitted."

"No different than requiring annual flu vaccine, hepatitis vaccinations, etc."

"They are being selfish divas..."

"The bigger picture as it has been with almost all vaccines is that if you reduce the amount of time the virus is in a person, the less time it has to spread. "

All these products do is give you a concentrated dose of the original Wuhan bioweapon spike protein, or in the case of the mRNA versions, they essentially turn your body into a spike protein producing virus. They are not vaccines. They don't reduce your risk of becoming sick. They increase your risk of being hospitalized. They cause the in-the-wild versions of COVID to become more deadly.

The CDC HIDES all this by treating people with (one of the two doses), or people who have been (recently vaccinated) as (UNVACCINATED). Why do you always see the numbers broken down as vaccinated vs unvaccinated, when the reality is that a huge chunk of the population is partially vaccinated?

Because:

Unvaccinated
1/2 Doses Vaccinated <---- Most of the deaths and hospitalizations....
2/2 Doses Vaccinated but < 14 days <---- ...are in these two groups, and being categorized as "unvaccinated"
Vaccinated > 14 Days

The people who are vaccinated and at > 14 days are the survivors of the vaccine. The unvaccinated are the pure bloods who won't need medical treatment for the rest of their lives.

So that would actually be a case of breaking HIPAA to verify whether or not they had already been infected, so the hospitals must assume they haven't and thus will be prime candidates to be COVID vectors to their sick patients.

This statement demonstrates a lack of understanding of how viruses and immunity work. That spike protein is only a small part of the covid virus. Without the rest of the virus (the envelope, the complete RNA genome), the spike protein is harmless. It's just a foreign protein that can't invade or destroy your cells.

Your body then recognizes this foreign protein and generates antibodies and an overall immune response to this protein. So the next time the actual covid virus comes into your body and shows the spike protein to your body, your immune system is ready and destroys the virus.

Those who are unvaccinated are at a much higher risk of transmitting the disease to others, as well as having severe illness or hospitalization themselves. Unfortunately, this vaccine is not yet approved in children less than 12 years old, so all of those kids are at greater risk being around unvaccinated people.

In fact, we're seeing more children with covid and covid related illnesses now than even during the height of the pandemic last year.

There are also immunocompromised people (diabetes, transplant recipients, etc) whose bodies may not respond fully to the vaccine and to depend on us for protection.

It would very unusual/pretty much impossible for the viral loads to be the same. The whole point of vaccination is to minimize the viral load by having your immune system primed and ready to attack and destroy the virus before it can replicate enough to cause significant illness.

Nobody is quite sure at exactly what viral load you become contagious, but we do know that the higher the viral load, the higher your risk of spreading the disease. These vaccinations have been proven to decrease the viral load and the ability of the virus to spread, and this has been proven across multiple studies in the MEDICAL journals, so I have no idea what you're referencing.

And your point about obesity is somewhat valid. For the vast majority of obese patients, it is a choice and most of us do end up paying for their poor decisions in some way. And trust me, if there was some sort of way to vaccinate against obesity, you'd best believe we'd do it lol. However, there are plenty of people who go to hospitals for non-obesity related conditions such as trauma, stroke, type 1 diabetes, and severe non-covid infections. These people are also losing access to care.

The vaccinated aren't necessarily only concerned about being exposed. Some might be worried about that, but there are additional concerns with the unvaccinated.

It's already been mentioned, but in cities and towns that still have high covid rates and consequently overwhelmed ICU wards, the unvaccinated sick covid patients are the ones overwhelming those hospitals. And some vaccinated people who are in need of ICU beds don't get them. Because of the unvaccinated.

The bigger picture concern is about getting through this pandemic in general. Some recent medical opinions estimate that herd immunity may require as much as 90% of the population being immune. With the variants and what has emerged as a two month cycle of high transmission then low transmission then back to high transmission, the country and the world still has to deal with the associated social restrictions that come with covid, from masks to social distancing to certain lockdowns and shutdowns. Some of us vaccinated people want to get back to normal or as close as we can. Getting everyone vaccinated gets us closer to that and more quickly. If the US continues to ride the line of 55% vaccinated, we're going to have to deal with mask mandates, quarantines, lockdowns for longer.

That's what the vaccinated are concerned with. But many unvaccinated can't see past their bathroom mirrors and their "muhhh rights, muhhh freedoms."

Not all ICU patients are terminal. There are patients that require ICU beds for high success procedures. Read a case where a guy needed a pancreas procedure in Houston about a month ago when Delta was surging, couldn't get a bed. The procedure was a standard procedure with a high success rate. He died waiting for one of the ICU beds taken by unvaccinated covid patients. He would be alive and well otherwise. I'm sure there are plenty of examples in locations with overwhelmed ICUs.

You can say what you want, believe what you want. I don't care about the politics of covid. I don't care about winning messageboard arguments about covid. I just want us to get through covid once and for all. Vaccines help us to do that. But there are some who will just keep finding excuses and backwards logic that keep us at this stage of impasse in the pandemic. Things might get a little better. Things might get a little worse. Then it starts all over again. Because not enough of us will do what's best for all of us. It's just maddening.

You can’t spread obesity by coughing on people. That’s why it’s different.

But at the same time, the idea that we shouldn’t push for a healthier society, and need to just applaud people with the courage to proudly live their morbidly obese lifestyle is incredibly stupid.

The COVID "vaccine" has to be one of the most useless of all time, aside from it using experimental methods and having a list of worrying side effects and in fact behaving in ways they promised were "impossible". It has, what, a six month duration? You can still get sick and show symptoms? It apparently does almost nothing to suppress spread? It has the potential to kill people for whom COVID poses zero risk? This fucking D- effort is the moon shot equivalent of strapping astronauts to V-2 rockets and aiming them in the general direction of the lunar orbit. (Well, they'll land somewhere.)

There's an interesting angle to the corporate enforcement of Dr. Fauci's miracle seed mandate, which is that it poisons workplace atmosphere by directly bringing in outside political conflict and taking a side in it in a high-handed manner. This is equivalent to having a company-wide meeting and making every white employee apologize one at a time for being racist. This is that level of political conflict, with the superficial justification that it is about "health". (Say, when are they going to get around to firing all the fat employees for driving up everyone's premiums?)

To me this signals just how large the gap is between the productive class and the managerial class, that they are willing to poison the atmosphere to that extent to look good to their corporate management peers (and to flatter themselves, I suppose). This is how they see their relationship to you. You can work at a place like that for awhile to collect paychecks, but eventually you will either loathe them or yourself: there's no other choice.

Note that you've never been obliged to provide proof of any vaccination before this (incredibly lousy) one--the "just the flu" virus, which Dr. Fauci's miracle seed does a piss-poor job against anyway. (And it was months ago that the number of CDC-claimed COVID infections was around 150 million--how is anyone left to still get and spread this thing?)

At this point it's time to stop kidding ourselves. Unless and until employees return to collective bargaining, this kind of mistreatment is the new normal. Being replaced by H-1Bs, being ordered to take useless medical procedures, being subjected to untouchable caste treatment by do-nothing assholes, what is it going to take for conservatives and moderates to get over their allergy to unionization? It's time for them to get over their resistance to doing anything and start organizing their workplaces. If you are waiting for a politician to fix this, you are an idiot.

And if you aren't looking for an exit strategy from a company that is treating its employees like this, what will it take?

I'm not outraged by either, I'm saddened and frustrated.

I'm a doctor and my job is to keep people from getting ill and to help cure their illnesses when they do get sick. Vaccines are one of the most effective and safe advanced in all of modern medicine, but millions aren't taking them because they'd rather listen to their cousin on Facebook than people like myself who have studied these things our entire adult lives. The reason why the COVID situation is more frustrating than the flu is because we're in the middle of a PANDEMIC and the virus is actually deadlier than the flu, so...yeah. Frustrating.

Because about 3k people died in a terrorist attack, we all take off our shoes at the airport and get exposed to radiation from body scans without a complaint.

He's never been anti-vax.

But he pushes the retarded “BuT wHaT aBoUt ObEsItY?” argument that purposely muddies the waters.

ESPN reporter Allison Williams leaving network due to vaccine mandate

Veteran reporter Allison Williams has decided to leave ESPN rather than comply with the network's mandate that all employees be vaccinated against COVID-19.

Williams announced last month that for the first time in 15 years, she would not be on the sidelines during ESPN's college football broadcasts because she had declined the vaccine. (The network made vaccinations mandatory for staffers at live events at the beginning of August, then expanded it to all employees this month.)

Then on Friday, she posted a five-minute video on Instagram to explain her decision, saying she is "so morally and ethically not aligned with this" as she and her husband are looking to have another child.

Williams cited anecdotal evidence of women having health issues after getting the vaccine as one of the reasons she is choosing not to follow the company mandate.

However, the Centers for Disease Control has said there is currently no evidence the COVID vaccines cause fertility problems in women and men, and that "the benefits of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine outweigh any known or potential risks of vaccination during pregnancy."

Anecdotal evidence? From who’s anecdote?
