Honest question, I wonder how the hell LSU pulled that off. I haven’t heard a rate near that high for any other team.

Tldr, anything in there about steroids, fentanyl or spike protein toxin shedding?

Players will die - from 2020

quote:

Dr. Sheldon Jacobson told CBS Sports he expects a 30%-50% infection rate of the approximately 13,000 players competing in FBS this season. Based on his research, he also projects 3-7 deaths among those players due to COVID-19.


Just remember, these are the same people. Apparently track records don’t mean a thing anymore.

Lot of factors likely

A coach that seems to be player friendly- they likely trust him

Louisiana one of the hardest hit areas- fear from players

LSU is an old team- senior leaders willing to do whatever it takes

I mean 100% of coaches vaccinated, and currently only 3 unvaccinated players. Covid protocols simply won’t matter for LSU

Hope you’re right. Just wait until the next variant though…..

We can try to keep up with this forever if we want. It’s pretty obvious this will be just like the flu. Mutates every year but becomes less and less dangerous over time. Sooner we accept that the better.

I wanna say the last time I checked, our squad was still hovering around 50%. Could be wrong though.

Was told by a coworker who is a ole miss fan that only about 20-30% of their team is vaccinated.

College football’s worst fear in the pandemic: The death of a player

SEP 25, 2020


Utes had a player hospitalized with COVID-19, UCLA game remains in doubt Nov. 9, 2020

Viral Facebook post from IU football player's mom about son's COVID-19 issues serves as warning

Justin Foster might get the urge to pick up the pace in the grocery store and whisk from aisle to aisle, but his body will force him to slow down. The chest pains will hit. He’ll have difficulty breathing. And before he has purchased his items, Foster either will have to find a seat or leave altogether, unable to complete what was once a simple task.

A little more than a year ago, Foster was a star defensive end at Clemson, terrorizing LSU in the College Football Playoff championship game. And yet 10 months after he tested positive for the coronavirus, menial activities have the potential to level him.

If those deaths were legitimately FROM covid, why didn’t we hear a peep from the media??? Outside those articles of course.

They jerk off to that shite, you think they would have spiked the football…..

And before anyone says that’s gross, of course it is. But you know it’s true.

Now ask Sheldon how many will die from football related activities, and how many will be hospitalized, undergo surgery and suffer life-long debilitating injuries from playing football.

If you were truly interested in player health, you wouldn't be pushing vaccines, you'd be cancelling football itself.

Was not hospitalized. He had asthma and COVID and will be playing this year

Was not hospitalized, returned to football practice October 1 last year after getting COVID in August

Utes had a player hospitalized with COVID-19, UCLA game remains in doubt Nov. 9, 2020

quote:

Seeking to clarify what Whittingham said, a Utah athletic department spokesman later provided a statement to The Salt Lake Tribune, As it turns out, yes, the Utes have had a player admitted to a hospital.

“One student-athlete who has not been participating with the football program since August recently tested positive for COVID-19 and was hospitalized,” the statement read. “He has since been released from the hospital. He is at home and is doing much better. Throughout this time, he has been receiving full care from the medical team.”

pretty vague

from an SI article
quote:

The cause of death remains uncertain. Stephens’s father, Jamain Stephens Sr., told Sports Illustrated in a brief interview Wednesday that the family is “not sure of the truth.” He declined to elaborate further or answer more questions. “We are not making any statements at this time,” he said before ending the call.

In a statement announcing the news, Central Catholic initially said that Stephens died of “complications from COVID-19,” but the school has since walked back that assertion. Steve Bezila, the offensive coordinator at Central Catholic who coached Stephens, says the school modified its statement and that a cause of death had not been identified. The school’s initial statement resulted in a wave of reaction from many in college football. Stephens would be the first NCAA athlete to die of COVID-19.

Scientifically speaking, it has nothing to do with my concern for the individual. Rather, the vaccination rate needs to be high enough to enact an actual herd immunity to curb the speed at which new variants develop. When only half the population is vaccinated, it provides a short term protection to the vaccinated but poses a longterm threat to see vaccine resistant strains develop.


Scientifically speaking...

Even the vaccinated produce mutations and they also spread it. People seem to not understand what a vaccination is.

It is not a force field. It does not prevent the virus from entering your body. It does not prevent it from spreading in your system, and it does not prevent it from multiplying(aka mutating) in your system. At least not right away.

A vaccine is only "training" your body. If you can give someone something similiar, without it actually spreading, then the body will use it when the worse stuff comes in. That's what this is, although I do not know exactly how mRNA does it.

If your body already has had it recently and you still have the antibodies in your body, then your response to the virus will be much faster, and it will not have much of a chance to reproduce. But if it's been awhile, or if you only have the vaccine, then your body still needs to identify the virus, and then it needs to produce the antibodies it needs to fight it. And of course, enough of it to do the job.

What the vaccination does is give your body the information it needs to produce the correct antibody quickly. So when it see's the virus, it "knows" how to kill it. The same way people who find that correct antibody naturally have it.

So between the people who have natural immunity, and the people who have vaccines, while the cases may "go up", the effects are going to be much less.

And on the topic of mutations, most of them will be handled by the body easily. Especially if you've already had covid before. That's how 99.8% of the population is able to beat it naturally to start with.

At any rate, they typically mutate into weaker strains, as a virus that kills it's host doesn't spread as much. And back to the topic of immunity, those weaker strains actually still provide people immunity.

I don't watch the media, I look at the data numbers myself. I'll bet the media isn't talking about the number of people dying right now, just the amount of cases. Cases this, cases that. But the number of deaths...much lower. That is a combination of herd immunity, weaker mutations and everything I mentioned above.

Hey NCAA, idk if you noticed, but the SEC took steps by adding Texas and OU to eliminate you as their governing body.

In short

Actually the "vaccine" will never achieve that.

The recent studies out of Japan show that the efficacy half-life of the vaccine is 68 days and that by day 198 there is no detectable antibody presence.

There will be no "herd immunity" from the vaccines because the vaccines aren't vaccines, they don't target the N protein like a true vaccine would, but rather the spike protein, which makes it useless against infection and only has efficacy in slowing the reproduction of the virus once infected.

This is why countries like India, who have 68% of their population with antibodies and T-cell immunity to COVID, because they had little or no access to the "vaccines" and instead have developed herd immunity through natural infection. Even better, natural immunity is likely to last a lifetime unlike the spike protein immunity which truly would require a booster ever 2 months for maximum benefit and yet it would still result in rhe "vaccinated" as being carriers to the unvaccinated because the vaccine doesn't prevent infection or viral shedding, it only has efficacy in boosting your body's ability to fight the infection once infected.

When is a vaccine not a vaccine?

Immunity: Protection from an infectious disease. If you are immune to a disease, you can be exposed to it without becoming infected.

Vaccine: A product that stimulates a person’s immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease, protecting the person from that disease.

Vaccination: The act of introducing a vaccine into the body to produce immunity to a specific disease.

Immunization: A process by which a person becomes protected against a disease through vaccination. This term is often used interchangeably with vaccination or inoculation.
