SEC twitter touting LSU's vaccination rate. I think that's great. Downvote away.

Setting aside politics and the inevitable shite show this thread will become.


This is a small, but powerful piece of evidence of something. That our team is LOCKED IN and FOCUSED. Basically the entire team is doing everything they can, to prevent themselves from missing time on the field from this crap.

Everyone on the boat is rowing the same direction. That is good.

Back to your arguing.

Regardless of what you feel about the vax, that shows this team is fricking committed

97.4% of 18-22 year olds getting vaxxed is no joke

Michael Irvin recently went on a rant about the Cowboys because they didn’t meet the 80% vax requirement to left masks at training camp. Basically his point was that if you are a pro football player and you are 100% committed to winning a super bowl you get the vax, whether you agree with vax or not, football has to be the most important thing and everyone in the lockerroom has to be on the same page. Said jimmy johnson would preach that stuff all the time.

I personally am against mask mandates and a mandate to get the vax, though I did get it for myself. But I LOVE the fact that the team is all on the same page and are committed to winning football games.

Shows how controversial the vaccine is in our country. Dems hate to admit Trump’s policies allowed for the vaccine. Dems want everyone to take it, though. Conservatives don’t want to be forced to take a vaccine, even though Trump championed it. Many on here who are very against the vaccine think LSU’s football team being at 97% vaccinated rate shows commitment and is a good thing.

You hit the nail on the head. There's all sorts of hypocrisy surrounding this thing.

I think of myself as neither for nor against it. To me, it's all about risk/reward. I'm a very healthy 30-something who had Covid last summer and found it incredibly mild. So the reward of getting the shot is little. The risk for me is the unknown 2 years down the road. More likely than not it is safe. However, I have little to gain by taking that risk. My dad on the other hand is aging and has COPD; he should indeed get the vaccine and has. My young children I would never make get the vaccine until I'm 100% confident of its efficacy and safety.

Everyone should take a common sensical approach to it.

Scientists said Britain should bring in booster vaccine doses over the winter, minimise new variants coming from abroad and consider culling animals — including minks and even cats, which can harbour the virus — to prevent the mutant strain occurring.


Minks and cats you say?

the risk for you is indeed the unknown 2 years down the road - from the virus not from the vaccine

Do you give up your medical information so easily? How’s your blood pressure? When you had your AIDS test, what were the results?

LSU should be Vax Choice.


We could score some 4 and 5 stars from Vax mandate schools.
