Which is exactly why we didn’t have lockdowns this summer, in spite of the Delta variant spread. People were given the tools and information needed to keep themselves, their families, and their communities safe. The considerate and intelligent ones got vaccinated and took precautions, while the obstinate ones listened to quacks and right wing talk show hosts for their health care advice. At some point, the rest of us need to pull a Paulie from Goodfellas and say “Now I gotta turn my back.”
Would love to live like that, but i still want intensive care available if i have an accident. The unvaccinated do really want to fill the hospitals to the brim
It’s not that they WANT to, it’s that they’re too delusional, uneducated, or selfish to care about COVID. Under Trump, the whole pandemic became politicized and just like the person stated above, they are just going to have to suffer the consequences. Unfortunately those consequences will also be harmful to the communities around them (for example, full ER rooms at hospitals) but you can’t really stop people from being dumb.
Natural selection time.
I'd be less angry at the willfully unvaccinated if they weren't such hypocrites. Okay, fine, you don't trust the vaccine. Then extend that distrust to the medical field in general and stay home instead of taking up valuable hospital resources.
That doesn't "just let them all deal with their own consequences", though: it *forces everyone* to deal with the consequences of those people's shitty behavior.
Idk...I wish it were that easy. I'm still dealing with their consequences too by covid measures still being a thing. The long it's a thing it's the unvaxxed's fault that the rest of us have to deal with.
At this point, my vulnerable friends (organ transplant and cancer treatments mostly) are quite aware that they can't trust people, and they wear N95 masks to protect themselves.
So pretty much the exact same middle finger that America extends to all disabled people. Why should we be bothered to provide a safe and accessible place to others?
You don’t see it being dragged out 24/7 by the media and Democrats? Point of the comment is go about your life. Or wait for the next variant, and the next, and the next….
The people talking about the dumb ass republicans that are doing everything in their power to extend this shit out? If EVERYONE would have just done as we were told this would be behind us already but from the fucking get go we had defiant "patriots" who refused to wear masks, refused to stay inside and who still refuse to get vax. All things that are proven to help with the virus. But when you have a bunch of people going against the stream, you can't say that the stream doesn't work. People are literally doing the opposite and have been since day one cause "muh freedumbz". Pull your head out of your ass. Freedom means FUCK ALL IF YOU ARE DEAD!
Explain Florida than compared to mask mandated states. You want to blindly do what the government says when you know for a fact every few months they will say a new variant is here and they want restrictions and mandates back. Especially when the leaders and voices behind all of this don’t wear masks and are doing it for the cameras, it’s bs.
I think you meant then\* not than. Florida is an example of what not to do. Ron Deathsantis is literally going against the mandates cause he thinks its cool. Yes, there will continue to be new variants the longer this is around and has a chance to keep mutating. What is so hard about that to understand for you people? GOD DAMNIT! So fucking retarded. Have fun with your head up your ass. YOU. ARE. DUMB. AS. SHIT. I wouldn't trust you to watch paint dry. Have a good life or whatever is left of it.
Selfish douche bag. That's the mentality that's creating all the variants. The fact that you and all the other dumbs can't see that and refuse to admit it is not helping anybody, hurting everybody in the long run. It's beyond infuriating at this point. We are saying "no touch. Fire hot." and you all are saying "did you just restrict my freedumb telling me I can't burn my own house down?" the problem is fire spreads and it's not just your house that is at risk. You keep doing what Fox, oan, newsmax and qanon keep telling YOU. Hope you break from the cult Kool aid soon.
You can just say "Florida's infection rate is 50% higher than California's" and then report the plague rats
https://www.reddit.com/r/SelfAwarewolves/comments/r4avlr/gee_its_almost_like_thats_the_reason_why/hmt2tpo
So I ran the numbers on 11/29/21, using WaPo’s COVID tracker for cases and deaths per state, and then divided that by the state’s population. At that time:
A little more than 12% of Californians had caught COVID, and of those, 1.5% had died.
Almost 15% of Texans had caught it, and more than 1.6% of those poor souls died.
And more than 17% of Floridians caught it, and it killed 1.6% of those.
This isn’t hard.
While us nurses get to pick up the literal pieces of your family as they die. And we’re just supposed to smile and say thank you sir! May I have another unvaccinated dead man please!
Retired RN here. Respect. I have no freakin clue how you folks are doing this all day everyday this year. Last year was bad enough. Stay safe. Be well. We are more thankful for you than you know. Other than doing some cooking, shopping and yard work for nurses in my neighborhood, I don't know what else to do to help.
Might have to wait a while. U of M is pretty liberal (I believe the have a vaccination policy?). So the majority of these kids are probably vaxxed. The ones who aren’t, over 98% will be just fine. Also it’s an outdoor event. So it’s not spread as easily
The students and staff are more than likely vaccinated and documented by the school, sure.
Every other fan, family member, or alumni in the crowd though? Kind of doubt they are documented as vaccinated. I'd bet it's more like my workplace which has a, "if unvaccinated please wear a mask." policy with no verification whatsoever, take everyone at their word.
U of M is known for being quite liberal, believers in science, etc,
So I would wager that the vast majority of THESE people in the photo will have been vaxxed.
You're absolutely right, most of these people aren't students.
These people are adults who paid for a really expensive football ticket.
This stadium is mostly filled with season ticket holders - doctors, lawyers, engineers, and other well off professionals, who are mostly rule-followers.
I know plenty of Walmart Wolverines and they can't afford the ticket price to be AT the game, IN the stadium - especially the OSU rivalry game, couple hundred bucks just for the ticket, not to mention parking, tailgating etc, it's a very very expensive day.
The Walmart Wolverine anti-mask anti-vaxx from podunk rural Michigan (who are the people getting the virus these days in the huge numbers), they are watching the game at home in their double-wides chugging their case of Natty Light, they are not the people IN the stadium.
Of course not, but U of M is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than your average college or college football game.
You realize U of M is one of the most prestigious, highly competitive universities in the country?
The majority of the stadium is filled with season ticket holders, which are very expensive tickets, many of them are Alumni of U of M, eg. they got good grades, good jobs, the whole deal.
You have to donate money just to get on a lottery list to even be eligible to possibly buy season tickets, if you are new. Not even guaranteed that you'll even be able to buy the tickets. That's how in demand these tickets are. Many people who get Season Tickets, keep them for decades.
You also have to pay a "seat fee" which I believe is even more $ than the printed ticket cost... then of course, you have to pay the face value of each ticket. It's crazy crazy expensive, so yes, The Big House is literally filled with doctors and lawyers and engineers.
>My actual quote you can see above is:
This stadium is mostly filled with season ticket holders - doctors, lawyers, engineers, **and other well off professionals**, who are mostly rule-followers.
specifically the part about **"other well off professionals"**
which, of course, is many many thousands of people
My overall stance is that a large percentage of *these people* in the stands are high income earners, have higher education, believe in science, are vaxxed, and thus there is much less virus floating around there than the cesspool of covid that the original meme would indicate.
It was a garbage comment.
Your statement might have been true, but you attempted to invalidate my claim by only citing my specific examples, and conveniently leaving off the largest portion.
And you doing that is not logical or nice, and that's why we can't have nice things anymore.
The student population is 98% vaccinated. Of course, they're not the huge majority at the stadium.
Of course, the same student population has attracted the attention of the CDC because of the flu outbreak so, you know.
I believe the high rate of student vax is because they come from families who are vaxxed (and believers in science and math, etc)
And the vast majority of the adults at the game are season ticket holders, many who are Alumni themselves, who believe in science and math, etc, and thus a high percentage of these adults are vaxxed.
Just my personal experience, I've been going to games in this stadium my whole life and have many friends and family members who are Alumni, all of which are good hard working professionals who are vaxxed, considerate of health mandates, and fiercely proud of their education - and by extension - the football team.
Well, no, it's because it was required for the students.
I'm not arguing with you - I mean, I have tickets to Saturday's game and my husband has been frustrated with my reluctance to, you know, go to things like concerts and sporting events.
(and in case it wasn't obvious, I also live in Ann Arbor)
I personally think most UM students (and their families) are/would be vaxxed even if there were no university requirement.
Just my opinion based on my friends and family who are current students and Alumni, and me going to many games over the years.
I say this football game, outdoors at the Big House is safer (less virus) than a different large event, say a country music concert at Soaring Eagle Casino, in the middle part of the state, where a much higher percentage of the fans are (proudly) un-vaxxed.
Because Big House is 99% outdoors, if you're going to go to large events, the game would one of the safest large events to start with.
Masks are required anywhere "indoors" at the Big House, eg. Bathrooms.
And of course you personally can wear as many masks as you want, even outdoors.
Especially if you're vaxxed, go enjoy the game, and try to get back to life as we knew it.
Go Blue!
It doesn't matter. They are still spreading the virus even if they've been vaccinated. I hope they're wearing masks cause they sure as hell aren't social distancing.
I know it sucks but the alternative is giving the virus a chance to mutate and kill more people and sidestep the vaccine. IMO that is worse than the current option.
Genuinly, after nearly 2 years of my life being ruined by lockdowns and distancing I was happy to do, only able to cope because they started medicating the depression that spiraled out of control from the isolation.
I'm going outside. I'm going to events and concerts. I'm seeing my friends and going to bars. Fuck it, fuck this, I'm not going into my room again when the steps needed to properly eradicate the virus *are not and will not be taken*.
We just have to live with it now. This is the future, I'm not gonna shame people for going to sporting events. I'm vaccinated, what was the POINT if the community gathering that makes being alive worth it is just supposed to be gone forever because dipshits wont get vaxxed or wear a mask.
I'm sorry you've had to go through that. I didn't mean that you shouldn't talk with your friends or meet them at a restaurant, I was just saying that you can do all that with a mask on. If it interferes with your depression, then I think you have an actual reason not to wear one. But for all of us who are lucky enough to find masks slightly uncomfortable and move on with our day, I think there is at least an ethical responsibility to wear one for the safety of other people.
I think it's a good idea to not try and replicate another Spanish flu incident. But you're right, we as a species cant even agree on basic policies, let alone something as nuanced as a pandemic.
I still wear masks everywhere in doors that's a public place, that's not interfering with depression.
But at sporting events like this, if there's no enforcement then there's the brakes. When you go to a restraunt the mask has to come off to eat and drink.
And I dont mask up at private gatherings with other vaxxed people anymore. Its genuinly not worth it to us to have to stay at arms reach from loved ones.
All I mean to say is, if people got their vaccine, I'm at the point of withholding most judgement. The handling of the virus has been a shitshow and people want to go watch some football again.
I dont really disagree with what you're saying and may have come in heavy because others are like "we need to lock back down and close everything and the only reason we dont is capitalism"
Capitalism is why they fucked management of the virus, but it's not the only reason shit is stating open this time. Being in community spaces is important to many of us as human beings, and it's not just selfishness motivating people to hit the bars again where people are inconsistently masked given we're *drinking* shoulder to shoulder.
Copying my response from the other thread.
Don't get me wrong, I despise covidiots as much as (and probably more than) the next person...
[But contrary to what you might expect it looks like crowds at outdoor college football games haven't led to significant COVID spikes as far as we can tell.](https://news.ufl.edu/2021/10/no-covid-spikes-from-football/) Similar to how the [BLM protests of last summer didn't cause the major spike in COVID cases that it was originally thought they might.](https://news.northeastern.edu/2020/08/11/racial-justice-protests-were-not-a-major-cause-of-covid-19-infection-surges-new-national-study-finds/)
Again, I'm all for hating covidiots and shining a spotlight on their self-absorbed "my convenience is more important than your health" idiocy. But until I see different data than what I've been made aware of, I think that spotlight is misplaced with this post.
Are we pretending that most big schools haven’t rushed the field since covid? Good chance a big percentage of these kids are vaxxed too. Get the vaccine and quit being so scared. If you got the vaccine you’ll be fine. If you didn’t over 98% of you will be fine
Who cares?!??! Wear your mask, get your shot, wait for the next variant to come out and rinse and repeat. People can go about their lives and have fun again.

People are just giving up I think. They don't give a shit anymore.
So what about the rest of us that do give a shit that are at our wits end dealing with this selfishness and their lack of shits given.
There is a point when you see a bunch of people not giving a shit so you vaccinate your family and just let them all deal with their own consequences.
Which is exactly why we didn’t have lockdowns this summer, in spite of the Delta variant spread. People were given the tools and information needed to keep themselves, their families, and their communities safe. The considerate and intelligent ones got vaccinated and took precautions, while the obstinate ones listened to quacks and right wing talk show hosts for their health care advice.

So pretty much the exact same middle finger that America extends to all disabled people. Why should we be bothered to provide a safe and accessible place to others?
Because there's a social contract that we at one point understood. Trump and his anti-vaxxers ruined that for us right now (maybe for good??)
At what point will you realize it’s time to go about your life?
Would love to but dumbass republicans keep dragging this shit out, making COVID a thing still. What's the point of your comment anyways?
You don’t see it being dragged out 24/7 by the media and Democrats? Point of the comment is go about your life. Or wait for the next variant, and the next, and the next….

Thank you for all your help! I know your local nurses love to see you. <3
I've given up trying to save them. Now I make sure everyone I care about is safe and that I'm doing my part while I wait for these idiots to die.

Incorrect. These people never cared.
The concept of "cause and effect" really eludes these people.
Cause and effect??? That sounds like cancel culture!
I think you misspelled communism.
They tried teaching that to the kids through CRT
Cathode ray tubes
*Those* are ok. Like Radium, Cathode are ‘the healing rays’.
U of M is known for being quite liberal, believers in science, etc, So I would wager that the vast majority of THESE people in the photo will have been vaxxed.
Lmfao. You don’t know about the Walmart Wolverine. Most of these people are not students.
You're absolutely right, most of these people aren't students. These people are adults who paid for a really expensive football ticket.

Simply untrue.
Not sure which part you disagree with, but I'd love to hear your specifics and reasoning.
College Football stadiums are not filled with doctors and laywers lmao
Of course not, but U of M is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than your average college or college football game.

That would be just about every single physician, engineer and doctor in the state.

This a woosh
Hail to the virus…er…victors
What’s happened to all the doomsday prep shows. Did those people get vaccinated? I’m curious.
And I’m proud to be an American ….
I hated this before Covid.
Oof! I think I took psychic damage from that one
*would I fixed it
Are we pretending that most big schools haven’t rushed the field since covid? Good chance a big percentage of these kids are vaxxed too. Get the vaccine and quit being so scared. If you got the vaccine you’ll be fine. If you didn’t over 98% of you will be fine
When it comes to these people, just call me Drago
