We continue to ignore Science…

But there is a difference between talking about widely accepted scientific and medical findings vs. crack pot conspiracy theories. I think its worth pointing out that the people passing along bad information, while acting like they are an authority on the topic, are actually not knowledgeable people.

 

if people are dumb enough to use too hot for their vaccine advice, then I don't think pointing qualifications out is gonna make much difference.

 

So... As for THIS thread, do you think he is wrong about Joker?

 

And your TS version is that you wont answer his question.

 

I read it as it is stupid that arguably the best player on the planet is excluded from one of the sports biggest stages because he doesnt have a shot that has long since lost a lot of its effectiveness.

This is Tom Brady being kept out of the Super Bowl type stuff.

Its 100% newsworthy and unquestionably a standalone topic.

 

We can debate about whether a vaccine requirement is needed for any visitor or not. However, I disagree with making exceptions for Joker just because he is an exceptional athlete. How do you personalize entry requirements based on how many miles a person can run or how many hours they sit in a hyperbaric chamber?

also, these are his past indiscretions with COVID:

I mean, you have to earn your credentials here. It's why people have trusted me as an insider ever since we hired Chip Kelly.

 

What a sad joke. There is no reason for this at this point. The vaccines after just weeks even with a 4th shoot is almost no protection against spread or infection.

Science went out the window a long time ago. It’s all theater and politics now.

 

People are dying because they were forced to take that experimental garbage... NOT AT ALL FUNNY.

 

Lol, no they’re not. Stop lying.

 

To try to address the original question: yes it does seem a bit inconsistent to be denying him entry for not being vaxxed at this point.

That said, has their ever been a national policy that doesn’t be up having some perverse outcomes for some individuals? It seems impossible.

It would also be inconsistent if the US were to let him in and keep denying ordinary schlubs for the same reason.

So yes, I think it would be fine to let him compete without being vaccinated, but finding a seemingly unjust outcome of a federal policy doesn’t raise my eyebrows. I also think it would be fine for Djokovic to just take the shot, since it’s been given to hundreds of millions of people at this point.

 

There is reason and having an honest discussion on data. Then there is having so much smoke blown up your arse that you look like raging bull

Talking points and opinion hosts have become the new science.

 

I’ll gladly state anyone vaxxing a perfectly healthy child is stupid. No other way to say it.

 

My dads doctors think it may have saved his life. I'll make sure and tell them what some message board dude said.

Are you wearing a tin foil hat?
