Certainly seems to be a mystery to you, given that you were spreading false information in this very thread. My point, which you seem to have missed, is that if we are telling people they can still spread the vaccine and can't go back to normal after being vaccinated, less people are going to be lining up for the vaccine. That's just human nature. Here's a couple links that might explain it better: https://www.cleveland.com/opinion/2021/03/time-to-flip-the-switch-on-covid-19-vaccine-messaging-jim-sollisch.html https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/22291959/covid-vaccines-transmission-protect-spread-virus-moderna-pfizer

My fiancee was knocked on her butt for about 12 hours with a fever, chills, etc. Symptoms were gone in the blink of an eye after that, though and she was fine.

What you described with your wife (sorry to hear that and I genuinely hope she's doing well), isn't really relevant to the point. They didn't study if vaccinated people can spread the disease when the vaccines were being tested and developed, so they aren't able to come out and say it. So instead, they started saying "we can't say for sure if vaccinated people can spread the virus. It's possible." Somehow, the covid stans turned that into "vaccinated people can still spread the virus! Wear two masks even if you've been vaccinated! Don't plan on getting your life back anytime soon!!!1!one!!." And of course the natural result of that is a ton of people saying "well hell, why bother getting vaccinated then?" And that sucks, because we need as many people as possible to get the shot as soon as possible for the good of public health. The vaccine won't 100% eliminate transmission, because it doesn't 100% eliminate infection - but it will SIGNIFICANTLY lower transmission. Evidence is accumulating showing this.

People need to stop spreading this horseshit. It's infuriating, and it's wrong. On top of that, you're discouraging people from getting the vaccine, which we badly need people to do to reach herd immunity. Evidence is mounting that covid-19 vaccines will significantly hinder the spread of covid. Do some research on it.

Reads to me like they're planning a May or June call up for him

i think you're dead on here

I am simply astonished they would sign Eaton over someone like Joc, who would presumably come at a reasonable cost. What a gut punch.

god damnit.

Calm down, man. Harold made a tongue in cheek comment. You're smart enough to know he isn't actually in favor of tolerating drunk driving.

She seems very well qualified. Congrats to her - that's a fantastic accomplishment.

I'm embarrassed and disheartened. What a disaster of a hire.

That's fantastic. Congrats to Luis.

Now that's an unexpected reference

Sorry to be that guy, but can't watch at work. What did he say? Appreciate it.

christ, guys. try using your heads.

lol

God. Now I have my hopes up for a Harper addition. Thanks, guys

I thought he said he hurt it rounding third, not on the slide?

Collins up means EE won't be DHing, right?

Yep, this is exactly correct.

Fucking embarrassing. And is that the Cubs bench hollering after damn near every pitch?

I've been pretty pro-Ricky overall but this decision was such horseshit that it's unbelievable. What in the hell could he have been thinking?

Jesus. take a deep breath and get a grip, man.

Would guess there's going to be significantly more than 25% capacity, but it's too early to really say.
