AND....it's sounding like he was not vaccinated.

That's not true at all. The vaccine protects you from getting it but also lessens the symptoms if you do.
He's arguing the use of the word "vaccine" not what the shot is capable of.

Yet I can prove antibodies...but those that are vaccinated typically cannot.

A vaccine = immunity. The covid shot is not a vaccine, it is a simply a flu shot for covid.

You don’t go get your yearly “flu vaccine” do you?

I don't care if he gets shot or not, but if I tested and positive for covid I would be sent home from work asap or if I showed up positive without telling work I would be fired. But this don't count because its golf or he is having his best round? Or its the government using him to show covid is still around?

Not trying to be an ass. But, where are you seeing this PGA protocol regarding those fully vaccinated?
Jim Nantz stated it live on CBS ten minutes after it went down on the 18th Green... Nantz was gracious enough to to wait for confirmation from the PGA and then announced it live.

Have you tried watching tennis? Good gawd that is a serious yawner. And when a call goes against them they whine like schoolgirls.
Soccer was my first sport but not the "my leg hurts and roll on the ground" shit you see nowadays.
Golf is one of the only sports with "I". Only I am responsible for the outcome, nobody else you can blame. Also teaches etiquette, courtesy and honesty.....not the "only cheating if caught" bullshit.

Last time I watched tennis, this guy ruling the court!

"Virtue Signaling" is the action or practice of publicly expressing opinions or sentiments intended to demonstrate one's good character or the moral correctness of one's position on a particular issue.

You're welcome 😁

Oh I get it...

Like you saying how awesome you are cause you don't live in CA anymore?

Understood! 👍😁

I’ll try to type a little slower…

I haven’t watched baseball, football, basketball or any sports except golf since BLM/ virtue signaling started. Yea, golf isn’t necessarily exciting but I like some sports on the TV when I’m home and not doing shit.
Engrish enough?

Well to be honest, I had to go look that term up. This article provides a decent explanation, so now I get what you meant by it...


So, virtue signalling is an expression used to call out an individual, company, or organisation - suggesting they are only backing an idea to look good in the eyes of others. The term implies that they don’t truly believe in the cause they publicly support. They are acting out of bad faith, because they have an ulterior motive.


But, also from that same article...


Ironically, wielding the term sometimes serves as virtue signalling in itself. By calling out virtue signalling, the speaker publicly claims the moral high ground.


I miss the old days, when people just called each other assholes, and everyone knew what it meant.

😝

Sounds like he’s taking it in stride.

Rahm released a very cordial statement but what else could he say and not damage any relationships or sponsorships?

Golf, and it’s sponsors, is a brutal business when you pull the curtain back and take a peak. Many people don’t realize how savage golf is behind the scenes.

That sucks if he’s been vaccinated. If in fact he has, I say let him play and infect all the unvaccinated people.👍

Haven’t worn a mask period since I was fully vaccinated. About a month and a half now.
Your beauty queen governor says you still need to wear one so I expect you to do what the dick-tator says.

Not true RD. Same goes for TB. You can be vaccinated but still test positive for it.

Man, you fucking people just make any excuse to keep the narrative going eh? By DEFINITION a VACCINE makes you IMMUNE.


vac·cine

A substance used to stimulate the production of antibodies and provide immunity against one or several diseases, prepared from the causative agent of a disease, its products, or a synthetic substitute, treated to act as an antigen without inducing the disease.

Not true at all LOF, the reason the flu shot is called a flu shot is because it tries to prevent you from getting severe symptoms of a couple strains of the flu. There are 4 types of Flu, but they change every year. The flu shot is a crap shoot, which I never get.

The Covid vaccine targets a specific strain of SARS-COV-2. Very very different on many levels.

And the Covid shot is also a crap shoot, as seen by the less than 50% effective rates for the Delta variant. And it also aims to lessen symptoms of the specific strain of covid they made the shot for, right?

If it was a vaccine, no one that got the shot would be getting covid, and we know that is not the case. We also don't get flu vaccine boosters.

All of what you and I have just said follows the exact rationale of the yearly flu shot.

Man you fucking people don't know what the definition of immunity is do you.

immunity:

"the ability of an organism to resist a particular infection or toxin by the action of specific antibodies or sensitized white blood cells.

Key word resist not prevent. No vaccine will prevent an infection. But it is considered a vaccine.

The difference between the flu shot and the covid shot is that Pfizer doesn't $100 a whack from the government for the flu shot 🤣 🤣 🤣

Different studies have different results. Allot of other studies show an effective rate of around 80%. Reality, its still too soon to really know the effectiveness.

Yes and No. A vaccines helps the body resist the infection not prevent.

Everyone keeps saying if you get the vaccine how come you can still get the vid? That's how all vaccines work, has since the beginning of vaccines. No vaccines can prevent you getting a virus. But it is still considered a vaccine.

So much misinformation about this on the internet and RDP.

You are retarded dude. IMMUNE means CANNOT AFFECT. Whatever you typed is not a definition of IMMUNE.

RESIST means does not comply, if you resist an infection, you don't get infected. What the fuck do they teach kids these days?

So according to your statement -- there is no such thing as a vaccine??

No vaccine in history has EVER been 100% effective against the disease it was developed for.
Some are better (polio) than others (chickenpox).

I don't understand why anyone thinks this is cut and dried.
If a person is 50+ yrs old, 100 lbs. overweight, has high blood pressure and pre-diabetes (if they can bring themselves to admitt it) --- they are stupid for not considering this vaccine for the delta variant - even if it is only 50% effective.

If you're 50, 60 or 70 and healthy -- have at it -- you have very little to worry about.

That's because every single person's chemical make up is similar, but not exactly the same, there are always outliers in any population.

Those that are naturally immune. Those that cannot be vaccinated. Those that die from vaccination. All outliers.

This bullshit about the booster shot being a vaccine is what we are talking about, real vaccines are 99%.

This bullshit is proven to NOT stop transmission, infection, and CLAIMED to lower symptoms if infected.....lol. If you don't see the problem, you are part of it.

Where have I said the vaccine was less safe than not getting it? If you are old or have comorbidities, go get it. For the vast majority of people they are sick on uncomfortable for a day or two after one of the shots and are fine.

There are outliers to every vaccine, none are perfect. This is vaccine 1.0 for Covid. Lets be honest, it is not working that great and results are coming in that it is from 39-80% effective. But if you are old or unhealthy it is better than nothing for a virus you have a 99% chance of surviving anyway.
