The one group I coach has 4 players with covid atm 2 of which have returned from holiday with it , it’s rife already just in time for the kids to go back to school Thing is, people aren't staying at home with it anymore. One of my friends had it recently, but (perhaps understandably) went ahead with his holiday, eating in restaurants, etc., which did strike me as slightly irresponsible. It's true that it's quite bearable for most of us now, and most people are vaccinated, but you do worry about the immunocompromised, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Right, some digging. Thats a man called Aaron Rodgers, he is an american footballer who recently tore his achilles. Previously he has been susceptible to conspiracy theories and is a fan of alternative medicine. He is anti covid vaccination. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he had few alternatives. Thats his story. Make of it what you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Even if he was anti vax and his opinions don't share my own im not gonna take satisfaction if he has a injury or died from it. Its like a an anti vaxxer getting satisfaction of someone dying from a reaction to a covid vaccine I think its time to move on from all this Im glad its all over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can already picture the scenes with them pleading with doctors to save their kids who are seriously ill. Like those unvaccinated with covid in intensive care were doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
