WFT's Off-Season Thread

I could be wrong, but I'm not aware of any mandated percentage that each team must achieve with regard to vaccinations. I think Arians is speaking of the Bucs organizational goal (hope).

I didn't realize there were so many doctors and scientists on this forum.


Dont have to be a doctor or a scientist to relay the data that they present to us…..

I know Sunnyside mentioned a 70 percent threshold for a team to gain those extra benefits. This article mentions an 85 percent threshold.

Oh I'm not a doctor but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night. And with my access to Youtube and Google I think that qualifies me as much as any real doctor out there.

HA! I like Holiday Inn...Marriott's are better though; and I don't watch Youtube and Google and think I'm as qualified as any doctor who studied for 10-15 years.

Honestly, I like the back and forth. I'm grateful that there are a lot of opinions out there, and people are willing and able to present them. I respect all of them. Just as I respect the decision to get the vaccine, and the decision to not get the vaccine.

You're always going to have your anti-vaxers. They likely won't budge, and that's their prerogative.

But if you are low risk for COVID complications should you contract it, and you aren't comfortable with the unknowns of the vaccine (or the knowns), I think it is perfectly reasonable to be hesitant. I do think most people in that category will eventually get it, as I did.

I just wish the first reaction wasn't to shun or "cancel" those people - as I have personally witnessed.

In my opinion, I think it's better to let people live their own lives, and make decisions for themselves and their families, without giving them grief.

You do you.

It’s a legit concern..I think Israel has good data on this. Appears to be much worse than the whole J&J deal

One more reason for people to be hesitant.
