re: NC State May have to forfeit.

Different sport but while we're on the topic of stupid sports Covid protocols, I couldn't believe what I was seeing when I saw pictures of the #1 basketball recruit in the country Chet Holmgren's senior season:

He literally said he didn’t get the vaccination in time. Yes, it’s dumb. Yes, I think he should have played if he felt fine and I think NCState should play with a full team. But he wasn’t vaccinated in time for the test for the memorial.

Are most sports following the CDC 2 weeks after 2nd shot for mRNA and 2 weeks after J&J?

Completely ridiculous it takes someone taking Moderna 6 weeks to be considered as officially vaccinated as someone taking J&J in 2 weeks. After 2 weeks with 1 dosage both would be at similar effective levels.

The NCAA enforcing close contact protocols on prior positives starting 91 days from their positive test late in football season was dumb as well. Verify antibodies and move on instead they had to sit out longer than the positive they had contact with. At the time I thought that Ed didn’t have much of a plan to get former positives hitting 91st day acclimated to strictly following protocols again before it was too late while someone like Saban probably had a plan and back up plan for it. Ed’s plan sounded too much like it was get everyone infected before season and then they would be done with it.

It’s crazy places are still strictly enforcing this kind of extreme crap. Our vet got bought out by Banfield and after our vet’s office had been allowing people to come back with pets for couple of months (just wear a mask) we just found out today Banfield is enforcing strict pet drop off from parked car appointments and not coming in at all their locations. They are going backwards.
