All in all, I don't really care. He's ****** up my fantasy team this week and next. In the grand scheme of things and life, it doesn't really matter and doesn't affect my life.

Hey, at least you didn't draft Allen Robinson, Julio Jones, and Michael Thomas on your fantasy team like me. Lol

He received homeopathic therapy from his personal doctor or something like that.

This sounds about as legit as chugging bleach and shining UV light up your butt. I honestly think his use of the term immunized here is as much a lie as saying vaccinated. Show me some data where you can have measurable immunity outside of a vaccine or natural infection.

Eh, from what stuff I've read and Aaron Rodgers character he has shown elsewhere, sorry, I side with his family. The dude is an A-1-A turdburger and what he did just recently is right on par with his character. My level of shock by what Aaron just did is zero.
Ok. And to be clear, I’m not siding with Rodgers in this case. He was an ******* here. I just don’t think how he treats his family is relevant to him being an ******* because it sounds like a lot of people would want to be estranged from them

I'm vaccinated and don't understand why anyone cares if other people are vaccinated or not. Everyone is going to be infected at some point, likely many times throughout their life time. Everyone. You can delay it for a while, but it is inevitable (unless you are willing to isolate yourself from society for the rest of your life). It's up to each individual if they'd rather fight the infection with or without the help of a vaccine and/or other medication. Other people's decisions don't effect me, because I'm still going to be infected at some point, whether everyone around me is vaccinated, or not.

I disagree with a lot of this, but the point is that the NFL (his employer) had a policy. He violated it and lied about it.

This point of view completely ignores how herd immunity benefits those that are medically unable to get vaccinated.

It also ignores how we are still having issues with some hospitals not being able to provide needed care due to unvaccinated COVID patients taking up critical beds. That is a real issue and has even reared its head at Mary Greeley where they said that (at the time of the interview) 100% of their hospitalized COVID patients were unvaccinated.

When you or a loved one is diagnosed with cancer and it is early enough to be treated with a good prognosis, it is very frustrating to learn that they are delaying treatment because the COVID patients (most of whom are unvaccinated) are currently more critical and they can't spare the beds or staff.

Wait......what?? You mean the vaccinated aren't going to be able to walk through the hoards of unvaccinated without getting sick like Brad Pitt in World War Z? Say it isn't so!!!

Boy is there even a group they arent recommending it to (besides the under 5), has to be a tiny number. I hear is damn near impossible to get a medical exemption.

This isn't really not recommending it but I've heard that there is concern that the risk of Myocarditis in young males (I'm not sure what exact age that is considered but certainly under 18 and probably lower) may eventually be found to outweigh the benefits of the vaccine. The keyword is "may" and I think it's a pretty weak "may". At least that's the medical scuttlebutt I've heard as an accountant for a company that distributes printing machinery.

You can tell who the nutjobs are by their total ignorance of the actual issue at hand (breaking NFL/team? protocol all season long) and instead making it all about themselves and their opinions on covid.
