It really should be a serious discussion nationwide.

This is worth watching, IMHO.

At the rate of the infections today, we may be worse off than we were last fall. However, you must keep your fingers and toes crossed while stroking your worn out rabbit's foot to ensure that the games will be played. In the words of our illustrious alum "keep hope alive".

thing is, the vaccines (pfzer/moderna) work "as expected". they always knew that a "very small percentage" would experience break thru infections, particularly folk who are "immune compromised" due to other medications or illnesses.
the problem however is with folk who refuse to get vaccinated. they're the ones who are spreading the delta variant which could also mutate into a new variant that the vaccines do not protect against...

It's about time that one of them woke up! I wish that she'd make a call to the clown in the governor's seat here in Florida...and every other RED state's governor.

The football season is under a major threat, if we can't get 60-70 % of the unvaccinated population to do the right thing by getting the shot. They have to do what's right for the social order of our society. The vaccine will save lives and hopefully mitigate the continued deadly mutation of the virus. As our illustrious Alum says "Keep Hope Alive".

As our illustrious Alum says "Keep Hope Alive". Folks down here don't want to talk about this much, but the first big HBCU football game of the season (Orange Blossom Classic in Miami Gardens, Jackson State vs. FAMU) might have to be cancelled if this Delta Variant continues on this pace.
>Florida is leading the nation right now in new COVID cases. >Mississippi is 3rd in the nation right now in new COVID cases. >Higher than the national average number of Black folks are unvaccinated in both states.
Considering the current conditions, is it a good idea for these two fan bases to get together in South Florida without checking for vaccine confirmations??
There are now a growing pushback by some local officials to not let this game be played with fans...along with Dolphins games and soccer games.
The game is supposedly close to being SOLD OUT.

We shall see what happens.
But whatever happens here in the next month could be mirrored across the country with folks refusing to take these vaccines and COVID exploding everywhere because of it.
